In my efforts to take my girls to the the Ravens training camp this year, I was shocked to learn all of the bouncing around the team is doing. What happened to the days of a training camp being held in one location? The Ravens will be training at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, Maryland, Stevenson University, Navy-Marine Corps Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland, and M&T Stadium which is downtown Baltimore. Because the Under Armour Performance Center and Mustang Stadium at Stevenson University have limited seating, fans must enter a “lottery” to win tickets. A lottery…really!! How I miss the days when the Ravens trained at McDaniel College in Westminster, Maryland. Because I show signs of ADD, I had a difficult time attending to the details of schedule. On site, off site, enter lottery here, you can tailgate, you can’t tailgate…lots of details. A Ravens’ fan better be on top of this calendar. After thoroughly reviewing the dates, I narrowed things down. I’m hoping the girls and I can head to Annapolis this coming Sunday for a day of family fun.
