What to Expect: • Sunday Availability: Open 10 AM – 8 PM (Closed Wed/Sat) • Same Day Appointments: No long wait hours for urgent care needs. • ER Technology, Local Feel: Advanced in-house diagnostics, state of the art digital X-rays, and ultrasound paired with a warm, independent clinic atmosphere. • Specialty Care: The hospital hosts in-person cardiology clinics every other Friday, eliminating the need for long-distance specialty travel for Howard County residents. • Lifestyle and Lifestage Medicine &amp; Beyond: In addition to urgent care, VivaVets offers life-stage plans to keep your pets healthy from puppyhood through their senior years. "We aren't just a clinic in a building; we are a part of this neighborhood," says Dr. Sharma. "We wanted to bring trusted, timely care back to this location so that pet parents never have to choose between their schedule and their pet's health." Visit VivaVets Today! VivaVets is now accepting new patients. Whether you need a wellness checkup or immediate care for a sick pet, the team is ready to help.

ODENTON, MD — If you're headed to BWI Marshall Airport, make sure to mentally pack an extra bit of patience. Access to the airport was seriously impacted Thursday after a water main break blocked off access to the terminal and rental car center. The water main break was first reported around 7 a.m. The Maryland State Highway Administration said roads were closed on State Route 170, between Interstate 195 and Amtrak Way. "This is creating delays approaching both the airport terminal and rental car facility," the airport said in a post. "Rental car shuttles are operating on a detour." BWI Marshall Airport officials said delays are stretching from the ramp of the southbound 295 lanes to eastbound 195.

Bryce’s Treehouse to Host Inaugural International Overdose Awareness Day Community Event in Bowie
Maryland Special Secretary of Overdose Response Emily Keller to deliver special remarks
BOWIE, MD — August 25, 2026 — Bryce’s Treehouse, a Prince George’s County-based nonprofit founded in memory of Bryce Jackson, who died from fentanyl poisoning at age 17 in June 2023, will host its inaugural International Overdose Awareness Day community event on Sunday, August 30, from 2:00–5:00 p.m. at the Kenhill Center, 2614 Kenhill Drive, Bowie, Maryland.
The free community gathering will bring together families, people in recovery, behavioral health and recovery professionals, harm reduction advocates, community organizations, and state and local leaders for an afternoon centered on remembrance, education, healing, recovery, hope, and action.
Maryland Special Secretary of Overdose Response Emily Keller will deliver special remarks addressing the current overdose crisis in Maryland, ongoing response efforts, and how communities can help move the work forward.
The afternoon will feature a community resource fair; naloxone education and distribution; Truth Pharm’s Trail of Truth memorial tombstones and community tombstone painting; Remembrance Trees; conversations addressing grief, stigma, substance use disorder, recovery, prevention, and community solutions; and a closing Memorial Candlelight Ceremony.
Tracie Gardner, Executive Director of the National Black Harm Reduction Network, will moderate the panel conversations, bringing together lived experience, family perspectives, behavioral health and recovery professionals, advocates, and community leaders.
“This gathering is about creating the kind of space I wish my family and I had known existed when we needed it—one where people can find information and resources, talk honestly about substance use disorder, remember the people we have lost, support those still struggling, and see that recovery and hope are possible,” said Kimberly Douglas, Founding Director of Bryce’s Treehouse. “We cannot bring back the people we have lost, but we can honor them by helping save lives and making sure other families do not have to navigate this alone.”
The event will conclude with a candlelight ceremony to remember those lost, stand with individuals experiencing substance use disorder and the families who love them, and celebrate those walking the path of recovery as National Recovery Month begins in September.
