Low Country Shrimp Boil Fundraiser
April 27, 2019 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The Cape Charles Historical Society will hold its traditional Low Country Shrimp Boil
fundraiser on Saturday, April 27, 2019 at the Cape Charles Museum from 5 – 9 PM. The
menu features the famous Alabama shrimp boil recipe — shrimp cooked with red potatoes,
special “Old Timer” smoked sausage shipped in from Alabama, corn on the cob, onions and
peppers. Accompaniments include homemade coleslaw and rolls, desserts, and beverages,
with wine and draft beer available. Food served from 5 – 7. All enjoyed with live music by the local Corn Funk Revue Band. There will be a Silent Auction in the adjoining Bloxom Station Building (donations welcome) and the traditional 50/50 raffle. Seating is available inside the Museum or outdoors under the tent. Due to a significant new expense, tickets are now $50 (2019 CCHS members can purchase 2 tickets at $40 each) and $25 for children 7 to 12, (under 7 free). They will be available by mid March by cash or check from Periwinkles at 215 Mason Ave. in Cape Charles, or by credit card* from our website Capecharlesmuseum.org. Also on sale at the Museum starting April 20, with a limited number, pending availability, at the door (757-331-1008). Event sponsors are most welcome, starting at $150 which includes 2 free tickets. Contact Kimb Denny (757-607 6483) for more information. The Museum will open for the season on April 21 continuing with the Rosenwald Cape Charles Elementary School exhibit.
* credit cards have $2 surcharge per ticket to cover card fees; credit cards also accepted at
