Get ready for one of Deep Creek’s most beloved annual traditions!
On Friday, May 31, join us for Pickin' and Grinnin' in the Barn, an evening of delicious food, lively entertainment, and community spirit — all in support of the Deep Creek Watershed.
The festivities kick off at 5:30 PM with cocktails and appetizers, followed by a fine dining experience catered by none other than Maryland’s 2023 Restaurateur of the Year. The mouth watering menu will feature lamb chops, grilled skirt steak, seafood lasagna roll-ups, and much more.
The night’s entertainment features The High and Wides, a celebrated string band hailed by The Washington Post as “the apostles of hillbilly boogie.” Baltimore Magazine adds, “From fiery barn burners to heartbroken ballads, this talented string quartet is celebrating the region’s rich bluegrass history, carrying the torch for the Old-Line legends who came before.” You won’t want to miss their energy and artistry!
Adding even more excitement is our famous Silent Auction — offering an incredible array of gift ideas, artwork, local experiences, and two exclusive vacation packages!
This event is always a sell-out, so don’t delay — get your tickets early and be part of a wonderful evening that benefits the beauty and vitality of our watershed.
This event is supported by Gold Sponsors, First United Bank & Trust, and Total Biz Fulfillment! Thank you to all our wonderful Sponsors!
We cannot wait to see you there! Get your tickets here.
