2019 Crab & Clam Derby

2019 Crab & Clam Derby

Category : Current News

We couldn’t have ordered a more gorgeous day for this years Crab and Clam Derby! The sun graced us with her presence, the town was buzzing with activity from the clam tide, the derby, crab races and crab feed. Our new apparel was on display, our local crab captains stocked the basin with 1000 commercial legal size crab, 10 of which had a special tag making them worth $25-$500. We had two lucky winners this year that caught “money” crab as well as 3 lucky winners of our clam derby with the biggest clams of the day. Raffle winners were chosen every 15 minutes ensuring it was a day FULL of winners. A huge thank you to Merino’s Seafood for supplying our crabbers with free bait and to all the other local businesses that donated our numerous raffle prizes. Our 50/50 Raffle may be been the biggest win of the day with the pot totaling well over $1000. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces and chat fellow crabbers and clammers. If you missed it this year, be sure to mark you calendar for the 3rd weekend in April for 2020.
