Mark your calendars for our 8th annual Low Country Shrimp Boil on Saturday June 21st held by Friends of Founders Park. The ticket cost is only $85 per person without added donation and includes a generous meal with drinks and all the fixings.
The event will be held at Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park in downtown Highlands from 5:30 until 7:00 PM. This popular annual event is the park’s major fundraiser.
Legendary chef Marty Rosenfield will be dishing out our delicious combination of shrimp, sausage, corn, potatoes and the other usual extras including dessert.
Says board member Caroline Cook, “Marty does an amazing job, and I think he is one of the reasons our event sells out every year.”
The Ugly Dog Pub provides two drinks of wine or beer. Tea and water are also available. For those that want to stay after, the Live Music Series in the Park is provided by the Highlands Chamber of Commerce.
Founders Park, completed in 2016, continues to offer the premiere outdoor gathering place for Highlands. The park’s facilities include a long list of amenities, such as the stage pavilion, restrooms, courtyard plaza, picnic areas, Wi-Fi, shade trees, native plantings, and much more.
It’s hard to imagine Highlands without our beautiful downtown park. Its continuing success is made possible by your support. The event serves as a community get together, however it also helps raise funds to help keep our fine park well maintained and beautiful. This year, the proceeds from our funds will be for continuing the renovation to the planting beds, select pruning, seasonal color and walkway improvements.
Held rain or shine, the annual dinner sells out quickly, so don’t wait to get your tickets – they’re available at The Dry Sink and online at FoundersParkHighlands.org. Sponsorships for the event are available and donations to the park can be made on the website.
