Don’t forget to reserve tickets to the Mattapoisett Community Picnic happening Thursday, August 3, at 5:30 pm. Enjoy scenic harbor views on the waterfront at the Munro Preserve, adjacent to the Mattapoisett wharf, while dining on “buck a shuck” local oysters and your self-catered picnic meal. This is a BYOB event and beer is also available for purchase on site. Music will be provided this year by Seth Asser and Gary Brown. Attendees can enter a free raffle for a gift certificate to the Inn on Shipyard Park, and if that isn’t enough fun, prizes will be awarded for the most creative, festive and beautifully decorated tables.
The Community Picnic is a fundraiser that supports the ongoing activities of the Mattapoisett Land Trust and the Mattapoisett Museum. Tables of four to 10 people or individual tickets are available until July 31 at: givebutter.com/GCP or through the Mattapoisett Museum website. Tickets are $40 per person and include tables, chairs, linens, a great location, one raffle ticket and live music.
