The Cape Charles Historical Society will hold its traditional Low Country Shrimp Boil on Garden Day – Saturday, April 30, 2016 at the Cape Charles Museum from 5 – 9 PM. The menu features the famous Alabama shrimp boil recipe — shrimp cooked with red potatoes, special “Old Timer” smoked sausage shipped in from Alabama, corn on the cob, onions and peppers. Other accompaniments include: homemade rolls and coleslaw, dessert and beverages, with wine and beer available. All enjoyed with live music by “The Swing Project”, a 5 musician local band. There will also be a Silent Auction in the adjoining Bloxom Station Building (donations welcome) and the traditional 50/50 raffle. Seating is available inside the Museum or outdoors under the tent. Tickets are $30, $10 for children 7 to 12, and are available by cash or check at Periwinkles on Strawberry Street in Cape Charles or by credit card by sending an email to ccmuseum@hughes.net.

Lenore Savage brought this wonderful event to the museum many years ago. We lost Lenore last summer. My husband Don & I helped Lenore and friends get ready for this event for the past 3 years. The Low Country shrimp boil just won’t be the same without our sweet Lenore. I for one would like to see the Shrimp boil renamed to The Lenore Savage Memorial Low Country Shrimp Boil.
I totally agree with Deborah, it should be named “The Lenore Savage Memorial Low Country Shrimp Boil”. A fitting tribute to a fine soul who is truly missed.
We agree as well. We helped Lenore a few years ago as well. She is truly missed.
