If you ever have had a desire to yell and scream at a crab racing down a wooded track, the City of Westport has the event for you. On Saturday, April 18, the coastal town of Westport, Washington will be holding its 28th Annual World Class Crab Races. Under the big tent at the Westport Marina, hundreds of crab enthusiasts will gather together to watch crab races, listen to live music, and of course, feast on the deliciousness of the under-sea crustaceans.
Come learn from the lessons the Watts family, third-generation forestland owners, have learned over the years of managing their 70-acre tree farm. Topics covered will include pre-commerical thinning, invasive species removal, restoration, and road building. There will be time for questions and discussion.
