DescriptionFort Meade Soldiers participate in Annapolis tug-of-war.jpg
English: Coach Phil Stellar of Annapolis encourages Soldiers from Fort Meade during "Tug of War XV" on Saturday in Annapolis. The annual event, which is billed as the longest tug-of-war over water in the world, featured 14 teams battling through seven rounds for bragging rights for neighborhood residents of Eastport and Annapolis.
The "tug" featured a 1,700-foot rope stretched from Second Street and Severn Avenue across Spa Creek to Susan B. Campbell Park on the Annapolis City Dock. The event was originated by the Maritime Republic of Eastport in 1998 when residents of Eastport felt excluded from Annapolis when the Compromise Street Bridge was closed for repair.
