Old Town Crier Regional Magazine

Old Town Crier Regional Magazine Promoting Old Town Alexandria from the “Bay to the Blue Ridge” since 1988!

The Old Town Crier was established in January of 1988 as "Alexandria 's Finest Newsmagazine”. Immediately embraced by the community, the Crier has continued to evolve and grow over the years and we are now known as the publication that literally reaches "From the Bay to the Blue Ridge."

In a piece the OTC published on “The Ten Best Crab Houses in Anne Arundel County” a few months ago, Mike’s was right there at the top and the majority of our trolling resulted in Mike’s getting many accolades.

Wrapped up the September distribution today with our “From the Bay” drops! A little lunch at Stoney’s at Clarkes Landing (first time I’ve ever ordered non-seafood at a Stoney’s location - 28 years to be exact)! The sliders were great! Had to make a stop at the Tiki Bar as well before heading back to Old Town! They have the best signage behind the bar…and in the ladies room! Might have to see what this “hangover to hottie” treatment is!😎

"I know that there are those of you die hard sun bunnies out there are lamenting the waning of summer but I am looking forward to my favorite season…sweaters, jeans, boots, sitting by a fire feature with glass of red wine and pretty leaves.

While most of my favorite things to do are geared more to a trip out to the country of up to the mountains, there are still a plethora of things to do here in the Harbor."

Released in 1982, “I Ran” reached #1 in Australia, broke into the top 10 in the US, and helped define the sound of a decade. The song’s low-budget music video also enjoyed heavy rotation on MTV, further boosting its rise in popularity. With its lush synthesizer textures, echo-soaked guitars, and angular melodies, “I Ran (So Far Away)” stands as a pillar of the synth-pop and new wave genres.
