The Community Oyster Roast at Chesapeake Academy
to
Chesapeake Academy 107 Steamboat Rd., Irvington, Virginia 22480
The Community Oyster Roast at Chesapeake Academy is based on the popular roll-up-your-sleeves southern tradition, which features sacks of fresh, local oysters in the shell roasted over outdoor grills until juice starts to bubble out of the shells, then delivered to the tables where they need a nudge from an oyster knife to release the top shell and seductive aromas. Attendees are urged to bring a favorite oyster knife. The menu includes all of the roasted local oysters you can eat, fried oysters, clam chowder, french fried sweet potatoes, hot dogs and hamburgers with all the fixings and dessert. Beer, wine, and soft drinks are included. You must be 21 to attend. A SOLD OUT event every year.
