Maryland
Dubbed America in Miniature, because you can find almost every feature of the vast country in one of its smallest states, Maryland has it all. With its rich history, major cities, beautiful coastline, and mountain regions, Maryland has something for every visitor to enjoy. Maryland is split into five major regions: Capital, Western, Central, Southern, and Eastern Shore, each with its own unique character and splendid sights for its visitors.

A trip to Washington D.C. often leads to nearby Maryland attractions, including amusement parks, art districts, wineries and excellent restaurants.  The National 4-H Youth Conference Center can host up to 400 people and is only a short drive from Washington. For a historical venue north of Washington D.C., consider the Glenview Mansion & F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre in Rockville, less than half an hour from the Capitol.

Abundant in rich traditions such as horse racing and baseball, the central region of the state deserves your attention. This region boasts the cultural city of Baltimore, excellent seafood, along with thoroughbred horse farms and the classic Camden Yards baseball stadium. Sports fans can catch a Ravens football game or an Orioles baseball game, then head down to nearby University of Maryland College Park and join fans as they cheer on the Terrapins on the College Park Campus. During the summer months, the University doubles as a perfect conference center in Maryland. Ideal for large groups, specializing in youth events, the University offers dining facilities, dormitories, and banquet halls for your next Maryland event.

Baltimore is a classic American city, featuring historical sites, professional sports teams, first-rate restaurants and enticing museums. The can't-miss Inner Harbor boasts several restaurants, shops and attractions. Visitors can rent a paddle boat, catch a fireworks show, enjoy an open-air concert venue or just walk the harbor and imagine all the city has seen during its long history. Host your next Baltimore conference at any of the several banquet halls and conference centers in this thriving city. Consider making your event extra special by hosting it on one of the several Baltimore cruises, and enjoy the skyline from the water. With more than $1 billion dollars devoted to renewal projects in Baltimore, the city will surely be a must-see destination for years to come.

On the other side of the Chesapeake, visitors will find fantastic opportunities for sampling crab cakes and enjoying beach life, along with plenty top golf courses and historical sites awaiting your visit. During your trip to this ocean-side region, be sure to explore Osprey Point Retreat in Royal Oak.  Located on 15 private and secluded waterfront acres, its meeting rooms make it a top conference center in Maryland.
