Celebrate the Eastern Shore’s muskrat heritage and more on Sunday, March 1, at the Crawfish Boil & Muskrat Stew Fest in downtown Cambridge, Maryland. The festival happens every year the day after the National Outdoor Show, which is a celebration of local culture with muskrat skinning championships that draw contenders from Maryland and from Louisiana, where muskrat are prevalent. (That Louisiana connection is where the crawfish come in.) So it's a real Muskrat Weekend! The Crawfish Boil & Muskrat Stew Fest is set to go on in Sailwinds West in Governors Hall at 200 Byrn in Cambridge, Maryland. The outdoor event features live music with the great blues music of Jimmy Cole and his All Star Band, food, libations, and more. The Crawfish Boil and Muskrat Stew Fest will be a ticketed entry, with a $5 admission charge. Proceeds benefit Downtown Cambridge (formerly known as Cambridge Main Street). Eastern Shore business Crabi Gras is organizing the event. For more information visit www.facebook.com/crabigras or call 443-477-2189.
