Baltimore— On Friday, April 26, 2013, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake welcomed Mayor Edwin M. Lee of San Francisco to fulfill the friendly wager made prior to Super Bowl XLVII. As part of the traditional Super Bowl bet, the mayors wagered a day of service in their opponent’s city. Mayor Lee is traveling to Baltimore to help revitalize vacant lots, renovate a police station, and read to 3rd grade children at an area school.

Mayors Rawlings-Blake and Lee began their day with a tour of Faidley Seafood in Baltimore’s historic Lexington Market. Lexington Market has been operating continuously for 231 years. Mayor Lee learned how to make Faidley’s world-famous crab cake sandwiches, as well as Maryland’s state sandwich, made with soft-shell crab.

“We agreed to a Super Bowl wager that would highlight the strengths and spirit of our respective cities,” said Mayor Rawlings-Blake. “Because the Ravens won the Super Bowl, we have an opportunity to share with the world some of our best food, and the great work AmeriCorps members are doing in our communities.”

“Although I do wish the Super Bowl resulted in a San Francisco 49ers victory and had required Mayor Rawlings-Blake to visit San Francisco, I look forward to cracking some Baltimore crab and joining AmeriCorps in the Service Bowl,” said Mayor Lee. “I believe this day of education and service will strengthen the relationship between our two cities and promote a call of service to our communities.”

After visiting Faidley’s, the mayors were joined by Wendy Spencer, CEO of the Corporation for National and Community Service; Joe Briggs of the NFL Players Association; Navarro Bowman of the San Francisco 49ers; and hundreds of AmeriCorps members for a day of service in Baltimore.

Service activities included revitalizing a vacant lot through Baltimore’s Power in Dirt initiative; participating in a tutoring session as part of Mayor Rawlings-Blake’s Third Grade Reads initiative; and painting and repairing a police station.

The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) is a federal agency that engages more than five million Americans in service through its AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, Social Innovation Fund and Volunteer Generation Fund programs. CNCS also leads the president's national call to service initiative: United We Serve. For more information, visit NationalService.gov
