The Essex Division of the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce will sponsor the 30th annual Essex ClamFest on Sat., October 20th, 11:00am – 4:00 pm in Memorial Park in Essex, MA.

Clam Chowder Tasting, a competition that pits area restaurants against one another to determine who serves the best clam chowder on Cape Ann. Ten local restaurants are expected to serve up their favorite chowder recipes starting at noon and ending about 2 pm.

Judges of the chowder will be announced in advance. The public will also have the opportunity to sample and vote on their favorite chowder.

Other activities will also include an arts and crafts area; entertainment throughout the afternoon; the Lions Club food pavilion; an Ipswich Ale station; organization, church, and non-profit tables; a number of rides and games for the children; a health and wellness fair, and a raffle for a catered clambake by Woodman's to benefit the Essex Elementary School.

The crafts area and the rides will be open to the public starting at 11 am. For more information contact Sue Lufkin at essexmar2@verizon.net.
