Maryland Sheep and Wool -- May 7 and 8

The Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival is coming up in about a week. Held the first full weekend of May every year, this is the largest Sheep and Wool festival on the East Coast of the USA -- it's free to the public, running from 9 to 6 Saturday and 9 to 5 Sunday at the Howard County Fairgrounds, West Friendship, Maryland (near Baltimore).

There will be sheepdog demonstrations, breed conformation trials, the Parade of Sheep Breeds, a sheep-to-shawl competition, a gallery of entries for the garment, skein and fine arts awards, lamb and equipment auctions, and lots and lots of vendors.

I'm still looking for a carpool up on Saturday, if anyone is planning on going and has space.
