We didn’t want to disappoint our loyal annual crab feed lovers, so this February, 5, 2021, we took our annual feast to two drive-thru locations—Hermanson Company and SeaStar Restaurant—where members could swing by for their pre-purchased Crab Coolers.
Each Crab Cooler (up to ten per company) contained 3 lb of crab, 1 lb of potato salad, 1 lb coleslaw, 1 lb baked beans, 3 crawlers of local beer, and dessert cookies, hand-decorated with crabs and the SMACNA-WW logo. After picking up their Crab Coolers, members were invited to join SMACNA online for a Zoom Virtual Crab Feed celebration, complete with Under the Seas costume contest, prizes, and much more crabble fun.
The turnout this year was fabulous, and congratulations to those who won prizes for Under-the-Sea Trivia and Best Costume. The following members won a Chewie gift card for their Cutest Pet submission: Ned Gebert, McKinstry Company; Dwight Nelson, NW Sheet Metal Org. Trust; Michael DeFrancisco, Pinchiff Mechanical; and Andy Gail, Sunbelt Controls.
We look forward to next year when we can (hopefully) get back together in person. ▪
