How I spent my Saturday.
Portsmouth Herald: "The 19th annual WOKQ Chowderfest, New England's biggest and oldest chowder-tasting competition, attracted 4,000 people, who sampled 500-plus gallons of different chowders."
Fosters Daily Democrat: "The Pines Seafood House swept both the People's Choice and Judge's Choice awards at the 19th annual Chowder Festival on Saturday. The Raymond seafood restaurant topped both categories this year after finishing first in the [People's Choice] voting last year."
The picture above (taken by my Dad) is the line of people waiting to get into the Fest just before the gates opened. The ChowderFest is a fundraiser for the Prescott Park Arts Festival, for which I am a Board Member. I was working at the gate selling tickets.
