OYSTER FESTIVAL • OCTOBER 9 - 15, 2019 3C
The 411 On The Oyster Festival Oyster Bay hosts 36th annual
T
he 2019 Oyster Festival is Saturday, Oct. 19 and Sunday, Oct. 20 in historic Oyster Bay. The festival spans the geography of more than three football fields covering downtown Oyster Bay to the iconic waterfront and Theodore Roosevelt Park. The 2019 Oyster Festival blends new activities and old favorites to commemorate the 36th annual event. 2019 attractions include live entertainment, top-notch artisans, scavenger hunts, pirate shows, amusement rides, ships, giveaways, photo contests and the iconic oyster eating and shucking contests. And of course...the food courts, where volunteer chefs and culinary pros work side by side, cooking and serving dozens of unique oyster, clam and other seafood concoctions, along with traditional festival fare. The Oyster Festival is a project of the Oyster Bay Rotary Club and funded by the Oyster Bay Charitable Fund. Profits from all food court sales directly support 25 participating local charities while proceeds from
carnival rides and merchandise sales is donated to additional charities supported by the Rotary throughout the year. Admission is free and most activities are free. Check www.theoysterfestival.org for the latest information.
Storied Past
More than 150 years ago, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States, was born to a wealthy family that summered in Oyster Bay not far from the waterfront property that today bears his name. To honor his memory, community leaders organized a parade to celebrate his 125th birthday. The parade proved so
successful that it provided the roots of what would become the Oyster Festival in 1983.
New This Year
Blue Point Brewing Company will host the first-ever Blue Point Beer Garden at the 2019 Oyster Festival. The tented area will feature six different Blue Point beers, both new and old, including a special IPA brewed just for the festival. In addition, they will bring friends from Billion Oyster Project, the #TallMotherShucka Keenan Boyle and will be selling Blue Point merchandise all weekend. Blue Point Brewing Company has been dedicated to sustainability and water restoration efforts through various partnerships. These efforts include their work with the Billion Oyster Project, an organization that is working to restore one billion live oysters around 100 acres of reef by 2035. Their reefs provide essential environmental services by improving water quality, creating habitats for thousands of other species and
helping protect shorelines from storm damage. Festival-goers can expect to see Blue Point’s Good Reef Ale made in partnership with the Billion Oyster Project. For every pint sold, five oysters will be restored to oyster reefs in New York harbors. Those five oysters can filter up to 250 gallons of water per day.
Run By A Nonprofit, For Nonprofits
One of the largest fundraisers of its kind, the Oyster Festival is a project of the Rotary Club of Oyster Bay and operated by the Oyster Bay Charitable Fund. Profits from all food court sales directly support the many participating local charities while the proceeds from carnival rides and merchandise sales are donated to charities supported by the Rotary throughout the year. The festival attracts more than 150,000 visitors annually. The success is attributed to the year-round dedication of members of the Rotary Club of Oyster Bay, and its Long Island business community sponsors.

Waterfront Experience
The Nao Santa Maria—Tall Ship The Santa María is a 200 ton, three mast replica of the Nao Santa María sailed by Christopher Columbus in 1492. It was built in Spain by the Nao Victoria Foundation in 2017. The Santa María traveled to several ports in France and Spain at the beginning of 2018 and started a voyage over
the Atlantic in November of 2018. It is operated by a 17 piece crew of men and women who use traditional techniques and navigation to sail from port to port. The Santa María is also used as an educational vessel for participants to learn about the history of Spanish ships and skills needed to sail them across waters.

Arts, Crafts And The Fair
ind unique handcrafted items in arts and crafts and start your holiday shopping early. Housed in massive tents along the bay in Theodore Roosevelt Park, shoppers will find more than 140 artisans offering a variety of handmade items and collector pieces. Artists and designers come from all over the country to showcase their wares at The Oyster Festival. When an artist signs up for a booth, their booth fees support charitable efforts performed by the Oyster Bay Rotary. “These coveted spots are nearly sold out each year by the third week of January, with the jewelry spots filling up first,” said Mel Warren, the arts and crafts coordinator since 1996, who began his relationship with the Oyster Festival in the early
’80s as a vendor himself, selling handmade leather crafts. Audrey Avenue Street Fair Visit Audrey Avenue to stop and meet many of our local non-profits and store owners that help make Oyster Bay-East Norwich so unique. Classic Car Show The streets of Oyster Bay will be filled with classic cars during Long Island’s most popular car show. Historical & Tourism Visit historic Oyster Bay and stop by some of these great places: • Sagamore Hill • Raynham Hall • Historical Society • Railroad Museum • 20th Century Cycles • Collector Car Showcase • Car Show • Art Show
