We are excited to announce our Annual Maryland Mayors Association (MMA) Winter Conference, to be held March 4-6, 2026 in Annapolis. This event offers networking opportunities with your counterparts throughout Maryland, educational sessions with key experts, advocacy updates, roundtable discussions, and a private VIP event.
Join us on March 5, 2026 for an exciting day of civic engagement. Meet Maryland leaders, visit the State House, and make your voice heard as we help shape Maryland’s future.
MML is thrilled to announce that we are seeking to sponsor League members with under 5,000 population for the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) Circuit Rider Manager Program who do not already have a sponsor entity. This program allows small municipalities to form regional circuits and share a manager/administrator to assist your municipality. Instead of seeking out partners and sponsors, MML will now step in to fulfill this role on behalf of your municipality.
MML will host a webinar to go into further detail about this opportunity on February 13, at noon. Please register here.
Strong communities don’t happen by chance - they’re built through shared purpose and trusted relationships. To serve residents at the highest level, we rely on businesses, associations, and experts who bring insight, innovation, and experience. Our members are always looking ahead, and through your partnership, they gain guidance, build lasting connections, and turn solutions into real impact.
The "If I Were Mayor...I Would..." essay contest is the League’s longest running ambassador program. The program is designed to help Maryland's fourth graders develop an understanding of municipal government and the role of the mayor. Each year, nearly 3,000 essays are submitted by students, describing how they would honor the traditions of the past while keeping up with the innovation of the future.
Join the Engagement and Outreach Committee during their virtual reading session on March 12. The essays are short, fun, and insightful. Witness firsthand what the great minds of Maryland's future community leaders have to say.
Calling all municipal leaders: Join us for an unforgettable day of civic engagement on March 5, 2026.
