• Toy Run for the Center of Help in Annapolis on Saturday, 3 p.m. "The essential to budget travel is to prepare in front. When it happens to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the fact of cost and budgeting is always in the back of our minds. Organizing and consuming our travel budget properly is a concern for most families. Lowering consuming and prices, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to guaranteed achievement and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking regarding saving money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal funds is extremely tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, regardless of whether on a budget or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel expenses!..". to benefit children at the Center of Help; sponsored by Latin American Motorcycle Association (LAMA) Annapolis Chapter, St. Andrews by the Bay Catholic Church, and the Sin Fronteras Caf Restaurant.
