Annual burning of the socks heralds spring season By JESSICA PACHLER, For The Capital Published 03/18/10

The vernal equinox occurs at 1:32 p.m. on Saturday, which, if you have lived in Annapolis for at least one year, should mean one very important thing to you - time to burn your socks!
Because the Annapolis Maritime Museum is temporarily closed for repairs, the official sock burning will return to Annapolis Sailyard (326 First St.) where it began 34 years ago. The celebration, a low-key, unplanned thing, actually will start at 3:30 p.m. Saturday and involve sock burning and the quaffing of beverages you bring yourself.
The Eastport Yacht Club will host a sock burning on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. for members and their guests. If neither of those options work for you, take tradition by the horns, grab some friends, some brews and some socks and start your own tradition.
