New –New -New

Since New England is famous for its Lobsters (We call them “Bugs”). We will be offering to those of you who have never experienced this particular thrill and of course to the many folks to whom a lobster is just a little bit of heaven, our first annual (?) Lobster Boil.

We are trying to keep the price around $10.00 per Bug (chicken lobsters), but market conditions will dictate the final price. Included with your cooked lobster will be all the need accouchements, melted butter, crackers and picks. Don’t worry as there will be “Veterans” to help with the dissecting of your Bug.

The “Bug” event will take place on Saturday Night around 5:30 ish .So all we will need for you to do is sign up during registration so we can get an accurate count of lobsters to purchase.
