Rock Hall is a small waterfront town right on the Chesapeake Bay. Founded in 1707 the town has been an important part of the historical fabric of the Eastern Shore. Their Welcome sign is ‘Nice people live here!’ Watermen and their families have worked the Chesapeake Bay for generations

The beach is a wonderful place for those living and visiting the town to enjoy. It’s also a wonderful location to see a wonderful sunset as the sun sets on the Chesapeake Bay.

Each year for the past 15 the town host a Pirates weekend on the 2nd weekend in August, although the 13th year was Lost at Sea.

Part of the Weekend includes a Dinghy and Poker Run with one of the stops being at the town’s bulkhead.

Watching the Dinghy’s having fun during Pirates Weekend through the Oysterman Memorial.

The town loves their Elementary School. This year during the Pirates Weekend the school held a Fundraiser. One of the participants willing to be dunk was the school’s former Principal, she is now the Principal at the County’s High School. The Pirates helped to draw the crowd to the Dunking Booth

As part of the events on Sunday, the Rock Hall elementary School Pint Sized Pirates Singers performed for the crowd.

Rock is a beautiful small town on the Chesapeake Bay. One can dock at one of our marinas or stay on land to enjoy live music and dine on local oysters, crabs and rockfish, go sailing, hunting, fishing, biking or hiking. The best part you can learn about the town’s Eastern Shore heritage.

About the Sunday Posts
Nearly three years ago I began doing a series of posts I called “Drives with Steve” on my photography Website, SGAtkinson.com. The idea was to take a drive from my home in Chestertown to an randomly selected location and take photographs along the way.

This eventually turned into the “Points of Interest” series. Along the way I’ve captured a pretty wide range of photos.

For the past several months I have been doing posts on each Sunday that I have been terming,”Drives with Steve” and have tried to have recent one every week. Over these past few there has been a few things that have made these weekly trips difficult to do. One of the biggest has been, in a word, inflation. Especially the price of gas. The cost for these trips have nearly doubled.

I have decided to only do one “Drives with Steve” post a month, on the first Sunday of the Month. What will be appearing on the other Sundays?

“Points of Interest” on the Second Sunday, “Common Series” on the Third Sunday and “Over the Years on the Fourth Sunday.
