Congratulations Lindsay. Well deserved.
WTG Anne, That's awesome work!
what is The Baby Rest Stop?
Betty Gardner was a classy lady and did more for tourism in Wicomico County than anybody before or since. She was instrumental in promoting the Great Salisbury Fireman's Muster back in the 1980's and with the exception of Bunk Mann, Charlie Black, and Greg Smith played a large role in it's 20 year success. Rest in peace, fine lady !
I have no doubt that Country Inn and Suites won...Anne and Robert and the entire staff are top notch!!
I always stay there when I come home to visit and...I refer my friends there when they are planning to stay in Salisbury.
Congrats Anne.... Well deserved.
