10th Annual South Norfolk Ruritan Blue Crab Festival
The South Norfolk Ruritans recently held their 10th Annual Blue Crab Festival at the Khedive Shrine Temple in Chesapeake. It was a beautiful day to enjoy all you can eat steamed crabs from Wicker's Crab Pot, as well as pork barbeque, and fried fish. Music by This Time Around Band provided the entertainment for the afternoon. Proceeds from the event will help various charities.
