There's more... it's not just about the food, the Ferry Beach Labor Day Weekend Cookout is known for being the ultimate summer bash! Be prepared to groove the night away to the sounds of live music by the talented local band, The Quiet Riot Act.

If you need a break from the music, challenge your loved ones to a game of cornhole or participate in the many exciting family-friendly games and activities (there's always an array of activities for the kids)! And, of course, no summer celebration would be complete without some beach fun in the sun! Just steps away from the cookout, lies miles of sandy beach, so be sure to head down to the sand for some additional fun, relaxation and maybe even a friendly sand castle competition.
