We will be traveling up though Maryland in early September. We have some friends who moved to Silver Spring. Is there any place that one can stay overnight that is free or inexpensive? One campground I looked at was $75/night. Even the Fort Meade campground was $50/night, and that is if there is space available.

Depends on how close to Silver Spring you want to be. There are a couple nice MD state parks in the Frederick area, Gambrill and Cunningham Falls. They would be in the range of an hour plus away (unless you go during commute hours which could take much much longer). They are at a bit of a higher elevation on a ridge so could offer more comfortable camping weather. Cunningham falls is the farther of the two but is interesting because it's co-located with Catoctin Mountain national park where Camp David is.

Boondockers Welcome has some spots in the area. There's a fee to join but I've made great use of my membership.
