“For the past eight years, it has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as your Governor and First Lady,” Hogan said in a release announcing the event. “The First Lady and I look forward to welcoming Marylanders of all ages to Government House this holiday season for our final Holiday Open House.”

The event will have refreshments, holiday decorations and a chance for visitors to give back to those in need.

“The First Family asks that guests consider bringing unwrapped toys, which will be donated to those in need during this holiday season,” the release said. “The Maryland State Police will be collecting donations under a tent by the front gate for a local toy drive.”
