Due to circumstance beyond our control, we have moved our annual outing from Maryland's Eastern Shore to Baltimore's Inner Harbor on June 28-29. Join us for the day, the evening, or the entire weekend in this vibrant community. Our excursion offers guests of all ages the opportunity to explore some of the best sights that Inner Harbor has to offer.
Weekend guests will enjoy lodging in the Hyatt Regency Baltimore on the Inner Harbor–a newly renovated hotel in the heart of downtown, linked by skywalk to the Convention Center and Harborplace, and within walking distance to the Maryland Science Center, the National Aquarium, Orioles Park at Camden Yards, and the Ravens Stadium.
Our exclusive weekend package costs $275 per adult/double occupancy room, and includes lodging and special dinners, as listed below. Children under 18 staying with parents (two beds to a room) are treated to complimentary lodging and dinners.
*We have listed separate pricing for each event for alumni who wish to join us for a dinner, and for all alumni wishing to participate in the Lafayette Open.
