What We Do

In addition to promotion and advocacy of our members, we are proud to play a part in improving the quality of life in Annapolis... we also give back to the community that supports our businesses:

1.  Advocacy
2.  Events
3.  Programs

In the fall ABA provides the Navy flags displayed downtown during Navy football weekends and events. During the holiday season, we coordinate and pay for the downtown holiday decorations and we sponsor and manage the Midnight Madness shopping nights.

ABA promotes and manages the Park & Shop program that allows participating businesses to offer discount parking for their customers. There are many options for parking in Annapolis, including metered and valet parking downtown, discounted evening and nighttime parking at various garages in town and at the Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium (with free shuttle service to downtown).
