Labor Day at Somers Cove

The WYA Labor Day Cruise to Somers Cove will be from Friday August 30 through Monday September 2, 2024.  Last year, six WYA boats participated, and a Great Time was had by all. 

Crisfield lights up the town for Labor Day Weekend with the National Hard Crab Derby events including crab races, contests, carnival rides, live entertainment, beauty pageants, a parade, fireworks and more.  The schedule of events for 2024 has not been published yet but the 2023 event flyer can be seen at https://www.nationalhardcrabderby.com/ .  The 2024 Weekend is expected to follow the successful pattern of last year.  WYA will have special events including a Saturday or Sunday evening cook out // potluck.
