Berlin, Md. – On Sunday, October 22nd, local restaurants Crab Alley and Bull on the Beach sponsored the 9th Annual Crab Feast and Bull Roast benefiting Atlantic General Hospital.

The Crab Feast and Bull Roast was open to the public and included all-you-can-eat food and beverages, along with auctions, games, giveaways, and music by DJ Wax with just a $60 donation to Atlantic General Hospital. CEO and President of Atlantic General Hospital, Michael Franklin stated, “The event was a complete success. We are so grateful to both Crab alley and Bull on the Beach for organizing such a fantastic event that benefits the Atlantic General Hospital and its mission to improve individual and community health.”

Make note that the 23rd Annual Penguin Swim is to be held on New Year’s Day – Monday, January 1, 2018. Once again, the swim will be held at the Princess Royale Hotel, Oceanfront and 91st Street in Ocean City, MD. I hope you have been getting ready to dunk your penguin tail in the icy-cold Atlantic Ocean because it will be here before you know it!
