Celebrate Lobster Fest while "Rocking" your Walk! We challenge you to paint rocks with scenes from the sea or shore and leave along your favorite walking route. Take pictures and submit them for a chance to win gift certificates at local enterprises! If you don't have the paint and wish to participate, just take a walk and submit a picture of the best rock you see along your way.

This is the time of year we all come together to celebrate Shelburne County Lobster Fest! This year we cannot come together in person but we can still share and celebrate our local lobster fishery and all the people who contribute to it! Many events are planned for June 4-7 and can be found https://www.facebook.com/lobsterfestival/
