Shriners raise funds with annual oyster roast
The 35th Annual Chesapeake Shrine Club Oyster Roast was recently held at the Khedive Shrine Center in Greenbrier. The occasional rainy mists did not prevent the huge crowd from enjoying plenty of raw, roasted, or fried oysters. Also on the menu -- some tasty fried fish, clam chowder, and clam strips. Local band, Hotcakes, provided musical entertainment. Benefits from the event will go towards the Shrine Club activities.
