The Event

An informal get-together of aviating oyster eaters and owners of Stelio Frati aircraft coinciding with the annual Urbanna Oyster Festival (www.UrbannaOysterFestival.com). The Oyster Festival parade is on Friday night and lasts for about 1-1/2 hours. Best to arrive by 10:00 AM. It includes fire engines, ambulances, "beauty" queens, dogs, motorcycles, funny cars, marching bands, bagpipes, arabian music, etc. Sometimes called the biggest small town event on the east coast, the Urbanna Oyster Festival is a unique slice of America. Especially welcome are unusual aircraft. Beech, Piper and Cessna products tolerated.
