Annual Maritime Lobster Picnic in the City

 

Alumni and friends are invited to the

Annual Maritime Lobster Picnic in the City

We’re celebrating the good ol’ East Coast way! Fill your evening with laughs, drinks, and a bellyful of food with old and new friends!

NEW DATE: Please note we have opted to move the event back a week to avoid any conflicts with the Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend. The new date is Saturday, June 4, 2016, 3–7 p.m. (Outdoor family games will kick off at 3:30 p.m.!)

LOCATION: The historic Ottawa Tennis and Lawn Bowling Club, 176 Cameron Avenue (next to Brewer Park)

COST: Only $35 for a seaside cooked 1½-lb. Nova Scotia lobster paired with a Caesar salad, summer greens, potato salad, soft buns, melted butter, and desserts all prepared from scratch by the new OTLBC culinary team. There is also a $25 rib eye steak option and a $10 special kids' menu. Cash bar available.

***NEW*** In response to alumni interest, this year we are pleased to offer individual lobsters for sale.  You can purchase an additional 1.5 lb. freshly cooked wharf side lobster for $18. Click on the “REGISTER NOW” button below to register and/or order additional lobsters.

This year we are also pleased to introduce a Silent Auction at our picnic. We have a wide array of fabulous donations, including Sens and Redblacks tickets, restaurant gift certificates, golf rounds, and more. All proceeds will go to our Ottawa Alumni Scholar-Bursary to help a first-year Ottawa student attend Acadia.  **Please be sure to bring cash or cheques only.**
