The Caroline County Board of License Commissioners made significant strides in planning for upcoming community events during their meeting on July 23, 2025. The board approved two major events: the Mactoberfest beer and wine tasting and the annual Greensboro Car Show and Music Fest, both set to take place later this year.

The Mactoberfest, scheduled for October 25, 2025, will feature a beer and wine tasting at 512 Franklin Street from 11 AM to 3 PM. Board members emphasized the importance of adhering to sample size regulations to ensure a smooth event. The approval was met with enthusiasm, with board members expressing confidence in the event's organization.

In a separate discussion, the Greensboro Car Show and Music Fest, planned for August 30, 2025, was also greenlit. This annual event aims to raise funds for the community basketball program, which supports 120 local kids. The event will feature a cash bar and live music, with an expected attendance of over 500 people. Board members highlighted the need for proper permits and security measures due to the anticipated crowd size.

Additionally, the Caroline Dorchester County Fair received approval for its three-day event starting August 30, which will include a cash bar for beer. The fair will feature local entertainment and aims to foster community spirit. The board discussed the introduction of a new vendor selling wine slushies, ensuring that all necessary permits are in place to maintain compliance with state regulations.

These approvals reflect the board's commitment to supporting local events that enhance community engagement while ensuring safety and regulatory compliance. The successful execution of these events is anticipated to strengthen community ties and provide valuable resources for local programs.
