Montgomery County Police (MCPD) are investigating a stabbing reported Friday evening at the Lakeforest Transit Center in Gaithersburg. Officers from the 6th District, which covers Gaithersburg and Montgomery Village, were dispatched to the scene around 5:35pm for a report of an injured person.
Colin Kaepernick will be a special guest at an upcoming fundraising event for Montgomery County Executive candidate Will Jawando, set to take place at Fork & Kitchen, an upcoming Rockville restaurant aiming to officially open by the end of the year. The event, scheduled for December 9 from 6pm to 9pm, highlights Jawando’s continued push to engage supporters as he shifts his full focus toward the county executive race.
The appearance marks Kaepernick’s second visit to Montgomery County this year. Earlier in 2025, the former NFL quarterback and nationally-known advocate for social justice addressed Montgomery County Public Schools leaders at the superintendent’s Administrative & Supervisory meeting. His message then centered on “challenging systems and championing justice,” themes consistent with his community and advocacy work since leaving the NFL.
Don’t just visit the Chesapeake Bay
Explore, unwind, and create memories on the water.
Imagine a Saturday morning on the water. Coffee on the dock as Annapolis wakes up. Cruising by historic waterfronts. Anchoring in a quiet cove with friends and family. Enjoying dinner at a waterfront restaurant before heading back as the sun sets over the harbor.
That’s the Chesapeake lifestyle.
With miles of shoreline, charming waterfront towns, protected waters, and endless places to discover, the Bay offers a unique combination of adventure and accessibility. It feels like a getaway, but it’s closer than you think.
Every fall, the Annapolis Powerboat Show brings that lifestyle to downtown Annapolis.
From October 8–11, City Dock transforms into a waterfront experience where visitors can step aboard hundreds of boats, explore the latest innovations, meet boating experts, and discover what life on the water could look like.
You don’t have to own a boat to enjoy the show. You just have to be curious.
Find Your Place on the Water
The Annapolis Powerboat Show is your chance to explore the many ways to enjoy the Chesapeake.
Looking for a way to spend weekends with family and friends? Explore spacious pontoon boats and deck boats built for relaxing, entertaining, and making memories on the water. Interested in adventure?

Step aboard cruisers and yachts built for comfortable weekends and extended adventures.
Every boat offers a different way to experience the water. The show gives you the opportunity to see them all in one place, compare options, ask questions, and imagine what your own Chesapeake adventures might look like.
More Than a Boat Show
The Annapolis Powerboat Show is about more than boats. It’s about the people, places, and experiences that make life on the water special.
Spend the day exploring the docks, then continue your Annapolis adventure beyond the show grounds. Enjoy waterfront dining, browse local shops, stroll historic streets, and take in views of one of the most beautiful harbors on the Chesapeake. Meet passionate boaters, connect with marine experts, discover new products and innovations, and experience the energy of Annapolis’s signature fall events.
From first-time visitors to longtime boating enthusiasts, there is something new on every dock.

Visitors may also experience boats in action at the PropTalk Demo Dock, where select models are available for on-water sea trials. For those looking to build their skills, BoatUS on-water training offers hands-on instruction to help new boaters gain confidence at the helm.
The Annapolis Powerboat Show is more than a place to see boats. It’s a place to explore the boating lifestyle.
