The 11th Annual Great Ogeechee Seafood Festival will happen from Friday, Oct. 16th through Sunday the 18th. Every year, the festival draws tens of thousands of people to the Richmond Hill park. Many of the guests travel mere minutes to attend, while others pack up the cars and make it a day trip or an overnight stay in Richmond Hill.
Besides seafood, there will be other types of food including the infamous Boy Scouts' Peach Cobbler made on site in cast iron Dutch ovens.
There will be entertainment for the whole family. The children will enjoy the carnival rides and games set up in the midway. The adults will take a trip down memory lane to the music of Lou Gramm, lead singer for 26 years for the group "Foreigner" and John Waite, former lead singer of "The Baby's."
Last year, more than 35,000 visitors attended the Seafood Festival, according to event organizers.
Friday morning, the special needs children's event will happen at the park. For a few hours, children with special needs will have free reign of the park and rides. Event staff will amend the attractions. For example, the level of the carnival music will be turned much lower than it will be the rest of the weekend.
