Oyster Creek Rotary Club’s 28th Annual Crawfish Festival is scheduled for Saturday, April 12, 2008 beginning at 5 PM at the Stafford Centre Convention Center, 10505 Cash Road. Event coordinator Robert Schoppe stated that diners can feast on
crawfish or catfish with all the trimmings while enjoying entertainment, fun and bidding on the numerous items offered in the live and silent auctions.
Additionally, a raffle will be held which offers US Savings Bonds valued from $500 to $1,000 with the grand prize being a $20,000 Bond. He also emphasized that the new location at the Stafford Centre will make the event weather-proof and more comfortable for participants. Food
will be served 5 PM to 8 PM. Other festivities will continue until 10 PM.
Raffle tickets are $100 each and include two meal tickets. Every 25th ticket drawn may win $100 or stay and play. Members are currently selling both raffle and meal tickets. Individual meal tickets are $15 and entitle the diner to one serving of crawfish or catfish or a
combination.
