More Saturday Soccer Celebrations

In the interest of equal time (not to mention geographic balance) we're giving a shoutout to the upcoming outdoor World Cup watch at the Patriot Plaza, 401 Bosley Avenue, in Towson.


Baltimore County World Soccer Fest, on Saturday, June 12th, is an all day, freebie celebration of local soccer and the big USA-England matchup to kick off the 2010 World Cup.  This family event is organized by WNST, in conjunction with ASG Sports and the Towson Chamber of Commerce, and it's open to any and all who love soccer.

All local recreation councils and youth soccer groups are encouraged to attend and support Team USA and our local soccer culture. Representatives of Baltimore Blast, D.C. United, Crystal Palace and Baltimore Bays will be on hand.
