Seaside Lobsterfest

Today was the opening of Seaside Lobsterfest. This is a new festival in St. Peters, one that the organizers hope will continue to grow over the years to come.  The day started with the Opening Ceremonies which had to be moved from the Canal location to the Lions Hall due to the very rainy weather.  To start off the event, there was a piper, native drummers and the Island Steppers. This was followed by a short speech by the main sponsor, Lobsters R Us.

Following the Opening Ceremonies was a Bistro Afternoon featuring Cyril MacPhee, a local and much loved performer.  The event which was held at Louie's Cozy Corner sold out. Many more activities are planned for the week. See the website and schedule here: Lobsterfest

We are volunteering at several of the events, its a great way to meet people and help out our new community. And here are the great "crew" t-shirts we got for helping out.
