SOLOMONS, Md. — Local music enthusiast Jake White is set to experience the 2025 Waterside Music Series from a prime vantage point, having won the coveted Dream Seats raffle. White will enjoy front-row seating for all concerts in next year’s series at the Calvert Marine Museum (CMM), a reward made possible by a longstanding tradition of support from Bozick Distributors.

For over a decade, Bozick Distributors/Coors Light has generously purchased four front-row tickets for each season, donating them back to the museum for raffle purposes. The initiative has raised significant funds for the museum, with 100% of the raffle proceeds directly benefiting CMM’s educational and preservation programs.

Tickets for the raffle are priced at $5 for one or $10 for three, offering participants a chance at premium Coors merchandise such as outdoor umbrellas, chairs, and coolers. At each concert, three winners are drawn to receive these items, culminating in a grand prize drawing at the end of the season to award the Dream Seats.

Waterside Music Series: A Community Staple

The Waterside Music Series has brought top-tier entertainment to Southern Maryland for more than 30 years, attracting audiences from across the region. It also serves as a vital fundraiser for the museum, enabling its ongoing mission to deliver high-quality programs and maintain its live animal exhibits.

Bonnie Barrett, Director of Development for the CMM Society, highlighted the importance of these contributions. “The proceeds from the Waterside Music Series are vital to sustaining the museum’s many exceptional programs and caring for our animals,” Barrett said. “It’s sponsors like Bozick who continually go above and beyond, finding creative ways to raise additional funds and improve the museum for the benefit of our community and beyond.”

The 2024 Waterside Music Series benefited from the generous support of numerous sponsors, including Motto Mortgage Preferred, RE/MAX One, Prince Frederick Ford Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram, and CEM Rolloffs. Additional sponsors include Riverside Trailers, Quality Built Homes, Sunshine’s Catering, Shore United Bank, and Bozick Distributors, among others.

To secure early access to tickets for the upcoming 2025 Waterside Music Series, community members are encouraged to become CMM members. Membership perks include pre-sale opportunities and various other benefits.
