All food and drinks are an additional charge. \nThe always-popular oyster stew competition gives guests the chance to sample offerings from area restaurants in an OysterFest mug and then vote for their favorites to help decide which chefs claim the coveted title and local bragging rights. \nThe friendly competition continues with our annual oyster slurp-off contest. Interested participants can sign up on the day of the event. \nAll the oyster-themed fun will come with an upbeat soundtrack thanks to live music on both sides of campus all day long. An OysterFest staple\, Swamp Donkey Newgrass will once again share their unique\, high-energy blend of originals and covers at the historic Tolchester Beach Bandstand. There will also be a stage on Fogg’s Landing\, including a performance by local sibling trio The Folk Villains\, to add to the festive atmosphere. \nThroughout the day\, the Van Lennep Auditorium will host a variety of guest speakers sponsored by the Upper Shore Regional Folklife Center through the Maryland Traditions Program of the Maryland State Arts Council. Representatives from the Pocomoke Indian Nation\, whose ancestral lands span much of lower Delmarva\, will be on hand throughout the day to share their history and traditions with guests through presentations and demonstrations. \nOn Navy Point\, the American Chesapeake Club will share demonstrations highlighting the retrieving abilities of its Chesapeake Bay retrievers. \nChildren can explore life on the Bay through a range of themed\, hands-on activities\, including lawn games\, model boat building\, and more. The Phillips Wharf Fishmobile traveling aquarium will be on site\, too. \nDon’t miss the opportunity to purchase commemorative OysterFest gear in the Museum Store\, showcasing this year’s featured historic oyster tin from CBMM’s collection. The one-gallon tin\, featuring a silhouetted sailboat underway\, was packed by Harrison & Jarboe Seafood Company in the 1950s on CBMM’s Navy Point and marketed as Miles River Brand Oysters. The design will be emblazoned on shirts and hats for purchase\, as well as the mugs used for the oyster stew competition. \nOysterFest tickets can be purchased in advance online or at the door.

SUMMARY:It's Electric! Bacterial Batteries
DESCRIPTION:This hands-on workshop will make use of Mudwatts to create bacterial batteries! We will explain how electro-microbiology works and how it is currently used. \nWe have a limited supply (only 10!) mudwatts. So\, there are 10 available tickets for people who want to build their own MudWatt that they can take home. But…there are also more tickets available for people who want to attend but not build their own Mudwatt (maybe you are sharing and building together with a partner\, sibling\, family member\, friend-all welcome!) \nIn this workshop\, you will discover the power of electricity-generating bacteria living in the soil beneath our feet! Best of all\, you will get to keep and take home your mudwatt to run a long-term experiment using the MudWatt Explorer App! MudWatts are reusable and can last for years! \nClass is appropriate for anyone in third grade and up!
