Shoreham Strawberry Festival

Mark your calendars for Wednesday, June 22, 2022 from 6 to 8 PM at the Gazebo on the Shoreham Town Green. The Shoreham Congregational Church is proud to offer its famous Strawberry Shortcake with fresh Vermont strawberries and real whipped cream. Romy and Ben Munkres of Cornwall will once again provide music for this event.

Romy and Ben Munkres are talented local musicians. Romy (fiddle, flute and feet) and Ben (piano, accordion, mandolin) have performed as a duo at dances and festivals in Vermont and New Hampshire, including Richmond’s Folk Night and the New World Festival in Randolph. They have both played with the Young Tradition Vermont (YTV) Tour- ing Group in Ireland, Cape Breton, Quebec and Scotland; Romy also toured Tottori, Japan with YTV. Both have participated in the Vermont Youth Orchestra and the Vermont All State Music Festival. They also perform with their parents in the family dance band, Honey in the Hive. A free will offering to support their musical endeavors will be accepted.

The Strawberry Festival will be take-out only. The generous portion of shortcake still costs only $6, and bottled water will be available for an extra $1. Patrons will follow one-way traffic through the lower floor of the church to pick up their shortcake, and bring it outside to eat as they enjoy the music. Patrons should bring picnic blankets or lawn chairs to arrange for seating on the lawn near the gazebo. Patrons may also sit in their cars nearby to enjoy the music. Join us for a great evening of good music and good food!
