Celebrate 23 years of the Hood Canal ShrimpFest, Brinnon, WA, May 28th & 29th

Brinnon’s Hood Canal ShrimpFest is a 501(c)(3) non-profit community festival located on the Hood Canal in Brinnon, WA. This community event is a celebration of Hood Canal Spot Shrimp and other local seafood. Proceeds from ShrimpFest 2016 will be donated to community projects.

Brinnon, Washington (MMD Newswire) May 18, 2016 — The Emerald Towns Alliance will present the Hood Canal Shrimpfest 2016. Shrimpfest, now in its 23rd year will be held in Brinnon, WA over Memorial Day Weekend, May 28th & 29th. The event will take place at Yelvik General Store Field, 251 Hjelvicks Rd, Brinnon (3 miles north of downtown Brinnon, between Yelvik General Store and Cove RV Park & Country Store).

The Official Shrimpfest booth will again be selling packages of the near impossible to obtain Hood Canal Spot Shrimp. Supplies are limited, it’s suggested you get there early. The Hood Canal’s extremely short (16 hour) sport shrimping season makes this a highly sought after commodity.

 

The popular Belt Sander races will return this year featuring morning and afternoon races on a brand new track! Bring along your favorite decorated belt sander to try your luck at beating the competition. (Racers: The track meets IBSA track specifications). Don’t have a sander? Try one of ours!

A full schedule of live music entertainment includes performances by Greg Parke, Eric Miller, The Old Sidekicks, Lobo Del Mar and Locust Street Taxi (full schedule of events may be found on the Shrimpfest website: www.brinnonshrimpfest.org ).
