Annual Oyster Roast and Shrimparoo Coming Soon

It’s time to grab your gloves, your oyster knife, and your towels! The annual Oyster Roast & Shrimparoo is here to help raise funds for two programs very important in our community.

The United Way of Harnett County and the Power Source Volunteers are joining forces to hold their eighth annual Oyster Roast & Shrimparoo on Thursday, March 18 at Champion Hoist & Equipment off Powell St. behind the City of Dunn Planning and Zoning office.

 

All proceeds go toward supporting the community through the United Way of Harnett County and the Power Source Volunteers.

 

“During these tough economic times, many people turn to local agencies for help,” said Catherine O’Dell, event coordinator. “By supporting the Oyster Roast and Sprimparoo you can have a good time, while helping to sustain vital community support activities provided by the event’s beneficiaries, the United Way of Harnett County and the Power Source Volunteers.”

 

Do you love oysters, but don’t enjoy shucking them yourself? Hire a shucker for $15 to do the work for you.

 

The Oyster Roast & Shrimparoo offers all-you-can-eat steamed gulf oysters and shrimp, hushpuppies, coleslaw, crackers, a variety of condiments, iced tea and soft drinks.

 

Put your business in the spotlight by becoming a sponsor. Sponsorships are still available! All tickets must be purchased in advance and ticket sales end March 10. Don’t miss this unique opportunity for some great food and camaraderie!

 

To purchase your Oyster Roast & Shrimparoo tickets for $50 each or to secure a sponsorship, call Catherine O’Dell at 230-2982 or the United Way of Harnett County at 892-1733.

 

The Harnett County United Way is an organization dedicated to building the community by helping agencies that support the citizens of the county such as; the American Red Cross, Harnett County 4-H, Hospice, Boy and Girl Scouts, the Salvation Army and many more.

 

The Power Source Volunteers are a service organization of South River EMC members dedicated to goodwill and community service, which provides annual scholarships for local students.
