Weekend Planner (Photos & Video)

If you are looking for something to do this weekend, the MyMCMedia calendar is a great place to visit to find out what’s happening in Montgomery County everyday.

Country singer and hometown girl Margaret Durante, also known as Maggie Rose, will be appearing at the Bethesda Blues and Jazz Supper Club on Sept. 6. Her concerts are always a good time.

On Sept. 7, MCM crews will be covering the Silver Spring Jazz Festival, which features Branford Marsalis and his Quartet as the headliner. Will we see you there?

Finally, on Sunday, the Historical Society will be celebrating Montgomery County’s 237th birthday in Rockville. If there’s a cake, it better be big because that’s a lot of candles!
