Coming to the Festival?
Are you going to be in the Outer Banks this weekend? I sure hope so. Well, if you are not here now or have other plans, you should try to change them. There is going to be a great function related to our local fishing community this weekend.
On Saturday, 20 October 2012, the Outer Banks will be holding it first annual Seafood Festival. The festival will be held at the old Windmill Point property in south Nags Head on the bypass. The festival will run from 1100 through 1800.
The festival will include cooking demonstrations, many exhibits, vendors, music and many other activities for both adults and children. The activities will focus on the Outer Banks commercial fishing industry. The show will host many of our local experts in the commercial fishing trades. I am looking forward to seeing some old friends and making new ones who have a long history of supporting our local commercial fishery and supplying seafood to not only us locally but worldwide.
The best thing is that the festival is “free” – including parking. That’s right – “FREE”.
There will be local food samplings and beverages will be for sale at the festival. You will need tickets to purchase of samples our seafood specialties that are featured at our many restaurants. These can be purchased on the day of the festival.
Weather is projected to be perfect. So there should be no excuse. It’s free, it’s local and will be a blast.
For more information, please see the festival web site.

Until next time, Tightlines – Capt. Tony
