More Lobsters: Are you ready to enter our next drawing for a Bucket ‘A Lobsters? From now through August, we will be selling raffle tickets here at The Community Center, for a drawing on Sept. 1.

Increase your odds. Buy lots of tickets! Labor Day feast is coming! Yummmm.

And now for a sneak preview… Dwight and Duane Lewis (our former Southport bridge tenders) gave a roaringly successful talk at the Historical Society last week. Unfortunately, many people could not attend due to space limitations. Well, here’s your chance! The twins have agreed to repeat their performance (actual they never repeat…) at The Community Center on Wednesday, August 2 from 4:30 - 6:00 pm. Look for flyers to be posted around town.
