The Maryland Coastal Bays Program and the Lower Shore Land Trust are teaming up with Burley Oak Brewery for a winter fundraiser Monday, January 25 beginning at 6 pm.
Darin Engh and Nate Clendenen from Saltwater Stringband and Sean Loomis from Drymill Road will be laying down some tunes while Shelly Messick from West O Bottle Shop, Reagan O’Meara from Harrison’s Harbor Watch and Tom Creveling from Deep End Pool Bar will be guest bartending for the causes!
There will be a silent auction, 50/50 and board game to help raise funds for both environmental programs.
MCBP is part of the National Estuary Program and represents a multiple decade commitment to restoring and protecting the bays behind Ocean City and Assateague. One of only 28 such programs nationwide, the program brings together citizens, local scientists, recreational and commercial fishermen, environmentalists, farmers, business leaders and government officials to create attainable goals for the watershed.
The mission of the Lower Shore Land Trust is to assist landowners and communities to conserve land for the enjoyment and well-being of present and future generations. They protect forests and farmlands for strong local economies; natural resources for diverse wildlife and clean water, and rural landscapes in Somerset, Wicomico and Worcester Counties.
So please come out and enjoy a fun filled evening at the Burley Oak Brewery, located in Berlin, America’s Coolest Small Town, to support two programs dedicated to protecting and preserving our environment for generations to come.
