Good morning {{first name | neighbor}}!

This weekend kicks of the start of the Oyster Recovery Partnership’s Chesapeake Oyster Week, a shell-ebration for seafood enthusiasts! Guinness Brewery in Halethorpe hosts a three day festival this weekend with live music, oysters, and more.

🍾 Small ask: If you’ve ever been to Ranazul, chances are you’ve met our friend & favorite bartender Jeremy Reed. He was named one of the Restaurant Association of Maryland’s Bartender of the Year Finalists and if you have a moment, it would be awesome if you gave him a vote! Vote here.

And if you didn’t know, HCPSS schools are closed tomorrow (Friday, 3/20). You can take them to the Guinness Brewery at 1pm and listen to My Chemical Bromance and enjoy some oysters! 🤣

Let’s see what else is going on!
