There is something truly special about Frederick, Maryland during the holiday season.
The historic buildings are adorned with seasonal decor, Carroll Creek lights up with the world-famous Sailing through the Winter Solstice boats, holiday events are happening every week, and there is no shortage of great shopping & dining.
Best of all, though, these festivities aren’t only fun, but also represent an opportunity for our local economy to benefit from a month-long surge in tourism.
The Golden Mile Alliance (GMA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming Frederick’s Route 40 area into a vibrant and thriving community. The organization has been working towards this mission since 2012 — with a focus on making the Golden Mile an attractive destination for shopping, dining, living, recreation, and commerce. Now, they are ready to take their work to the next level by hiring their first full-time executive director.
As the hustle and bustle sets in, we encourage you to intentionally set aside some time to appreciate the unique seasonal joys of our local community. In choosing to shop, connect, and give-back locally, you’ll make a real difference for your neighbors and be an important part of what makes Frederick such a special place to live and work.
