"There's still so much sing about\," s he says. She and her partner Paul DiBlasi perform together as the duo Ca lico Jack\, bringing their songs and stories about Bay people\, places a nd traditions to stages throughout the Bay watershed.\n"I grew up on the Annapolis waterfront\," Meneely says. "I can remember when the City Doc k was jammed with workboats." Nowadays recreational boaters have replace d the sleek working vessels that hauled crabs\, fish and oysters to mark ets around the Bay. "So many people come here now\, to revel in what the Bay has to offer\, but they have little knowledge of what used to happe n here\," Meneely continues. "They never got to sit around the liar's be nch in a country store. They never got to watch a fleet of skipjacks dre dge for oysters." Her remedy for that is to write songs chronicling her own Bay experiences and capturing the stories she's heard over the years &mdash\;either as a little girl hanging around her father&rsquo\;s boaty ard\, or during her professional stint as a journalist for Chesapeake Ba y Magazine. From local ghosts to tragic shipwrecks\, her songs bring to life some of the characters who add spice and color to Bay history.\nBe sure to bring your lawn chair! \; Pack a picnic dinner and enjoy the evening with us! Refreshments will be for sale.
