Nearly 60 firefighters representing departments including Pocomoke, Ocean City, Snow Hill, Easton and Montgomery County, as well as civilians, participated in the eighth annual Ocean City 9/11 Stair Climb at the Pyramid Condominium on 95th Street, last Saturday, held to honor the 343 firefighters who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. More than $6,000 was raised for the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. Participants climbed the 18 floors of the condo building six times, plus two additional floors — making for 110 stories, or the number of floors in the fallen Twin Towers.

Inaugural Snow Hill Seafood Festival planned for Nov. 6 Basic Boating Safety Course available virtually, Nov. 2-4

(Oct. 29, 2021) Every year, for the past 10 years, the Snow Hill Area Chamber of Commerce has hosted its annual Oyster Roast in late winter/early spring.

The event features all-you-can-eat oyster-themed delicacies from an array of local chefs and restaurant. This format, coupled with bottomless beer and live entertainment, has made the Snow Hill Oyster Roast one of the most anticipated events in the area, with tickets regularly selling out.

In response to the extremely high demand of this event, the chamber will be hosting a new event in November that mirrors the successful format of the Oyster Roast.

On Nov. 6, from 1-5 p.m., the Snow Hill Area Chamber of Commerce will host the town’s first Seafood Festival. Much like the annual Oyster Roast, seafood-themed dishes will be available from vendors throughout the downtown area. Menu items include a raw oyster bar, steamed shrimp, a fish fry, crab soup, and many other seafood delicacies.

Tickets are priced at $50 and are available on the Chamber’s website, www.snowhillchamber.com/seafoodfestival.

“Ever since I first took this position, I have heard non-stop talk about how amazing the annual Oyster Roast is,” Snow Hill Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Joe Laque said. “With how quickly tickets to the Oyster Roast have sold out in previous years, it only made sense to host a similar event in the fall to allow more people the opportunity of experience such a beloved event.”

Proceeds from the Seafood Festival will help increase the chamber’s operating budget, thus allowing the organization to expand benefits offered to members.

(Oct. 29, 2021) The US Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering the Maryland Basic Boating Safety Course, virtually, Nov. 2-4 from 6-9 p.m.

The cost is $20 for all three evenings. Register or get more information by calling Barry Cohen at 410935-4807, or email CGAUXOC@gmail.com.

This is the last chance to take the boat safety course this year. The Maryland Boating Safety Education Act requires that anyone born after July 1, 1972 must possess a Maryland Basic Boating Safety Certificate to operate a boat in the state of Maryland.

Those attending the class, and passing the test will receive a Maryland Boating Certificate which is NASBLA approved and valid in all states.

Checks should be made payable to: USGCAUX 12-05 and mailed to: USCGAUX 12-05, P.O. Box 1682, Berlin, Maryland 21811. Payment via PayPal is also accepted.
