Howdy Ags!,

Please join us on Aug 21st at Camden Yards as the Orioles play the Minnesota Twins and we raise funds for the A&M Club of Maryland Scholarship Fund through the Baltimore Orioles Fundraising Program. Their program offers our club the chance to enjoy a fun-filled evening at the ballpark while raising funds for local students to attend Texas A&M. Tickets are $15 per ticket, which includes free shipping. The scholarship fund earns $5 for every ticket sold at A&M night at the ballpark. Don’t just bring your family, invite your friends, neighbors and co-workers (Post it to your Facebook Account) since the Scholarship Fund gets $5 for each and every ticket the club sells for this game. We’re looking forward to seeing you there Aggies; let’s Maroon Out Camden Yards. Gig’em

Is there anyone out there that would like to work on developing a logo for the Texas A&M Club of Maryland?

There are some rules that must be met, that have been established by Texas A&M and are being enforced by the Association of Former Students.

We are looking for something that can be used on the website, letterhead, and t-shirts. So when it is seen everyone knows it is part of the Aggie Network, but it is also our Maryland club!

If you are interested in developing a logo, please email me at marylandamc@aggientework.com and I will get the rules to you.

The Muster Tradition

Century-old roots provide the basis for Muster as Aggies know it today. It has changed, yet the Spirit in which it was established remains the same. Since the founding of Texas A&M, every Aggie has lived and become a part of the Aggie Spirit. What we feel today is not just the camaraderie of fellow Aggies, it is the Spirit of hundreds of thousands of Aggies who have gone before us, and who will come after us. Muster is how that Spirit is remembered and celebrated, and it will always continue to unite Texas A&M and the Aggie family. A&M may change, but the Spirit never will.

In the Beginning…
Aggies gathered together on June 26, 1883, to live over again their college days, the victories and defeats won and lost upon the drill field and in the classroom. By April 21, 1903, this annual gathering evolved into a celebration of Texas Independence on San Jacinto Day. These early meetings included field games and banquets for Aggies to reflect and celebrate their memories of Aggieland. “Let every alumni answer a roll call,” wrote the Former Students. It was not until 1922, however, that April 21 became the official day of events for all Aggies; thus, the annual tradition of Muster was born. The March 1923 Texas Aggie urged, “If there is an A&M man in one hundred miles of you, you are expected to get together, eat a little, and live over the days you spent at the A&M College of Texas.”

Aggie Muster Day

We gather here to mark the day Aggies proudly stand.
To honor those who’ve gone before to the promised land.
Each name is called upon the roll, comrades answer “Here.”
Trumpets sound their sad good-bye to those we held so dear.
All heads are bowed in silent pledge never to forget.
While rifles fire their last salute echoes answer yet.
To their mem’ry we’ll be true; we will take their place.
One for all and all for one ever in Thy grace.
We’ll meet again another day, reunion while we pray
To ask Thy blessing on each one on this Muster day,
Aggie Muster Day.
