Eye On Annapolis Daily News Brief

We are lucky. And that fact was not lost on Anna Binneweg, the Musical Director and Conductor of the Londontowne Symphony Orchestra (and the Anne Arundel Community College Orchestra)! We have such a robust arts scene and not one, but two symphonies! Today we chat about the Londontowne Symphony Orchestra--the history, the seasons, the difference between it and the ASO, and also a huge announcement to be revealed at their upcoming performance The Wild Wild West! We tried, but she would not spill the beans! The LSO is a great community orchestra that is uber affordable at $25, and allows students of all ages to attend for free! And of course, we like some fun chat as well, and if you ever wondered what a conductor might be doing career-wise if they never became a conductor, well Anna's answer will surprise you! Have a listen! LINKS: Londontowne Symphony OrchestraLondontowne Symphony OrchestraLondontowne Symphony OrchestraLondontowne Symphony OrchestraLondontowne Symphony Orchestra

In case you have been living under a rock, there is an election on the horizon. So it made sense to sit down with Amanda SubbaRao, the President of the League of Women Voters of Anne Arundel County (LWVAAC), to discuss it. First thing first, the LWVAAC is non-partisan. They are a GREAT resource for everyone so they can make the most informed vote possible--which is often difficult in the all-important down-ballot races. We learned that the LWVAAC is not just for women--anyone can join, and the mission was originally to advance the knowledge of women voting once the 19th amendment was passed. So, guys AND gals--consider joining or supporting. We discussed the races and the tools available for voters. Did you know they have a comparison tool so you can line up two candidates side-by-side like you are buying a TV from Best Buy? Did you know that they have an extensive voter's guide that is available online and in hard copy at all libraries and senior centers in the county? Explore, and become an informed voter! One part of our discussion really resonated with me. Voting is like riding a public transit bus. The bus is not likely to take you to your final destination, but it can take you one step closer. Your candidate will be unlikely to check all of your boxes, but if they can get you a step closer, choose the candidate who will get you closest! Be an informed voter! Mail-in voting is currently underway; early voting begins on May 2nd. The primary day is May 14th. And do have a look at the very important links below! Have a listen!

College is a blast. Getting into college can be a drag. But there are ways to make the whole process a lot easier. Enter Annapolis-based College Sharks and Annapolis College Consulting! Today, we chat with Lee Norwood, an expert on all things college, from when to start thinking about it to actually finding a perfect school that will lower its tuition to have you. We learned that there is indeed a school for everyone, and what is the most important aspect of the process. And that was the tip of the iceberg! Annapolis College Consulting is more of a traditional consultancy where Lee will work with the parents and students one-on-one, but recently, they launched College Sharks. College Sharks is a self-guided, educational platform that will cover all the bases for getting into that dream school. College Sharks is an affordable option for many. And even more affordable for you--Lee is offering FIFTY free enrollments to the College Sharks Program when you use the code ALLANNAP when you register online! So, if you have a child headed to college in the next few years--here's a no-risk chance to get that leg up! Have a listen!
