Do I need to register for the Boil? I've heard great things about this.
no, but it's worthwhile letting Jerry know you're coming... see red text below.

Friday night we'll gather at StingRay's Grille and Bar next door to The
Dunes. We're hoping to have a ride Saturday, but nothing set for sure
right now. We have a Facebook page, IBMWR Low Country Boil, so join us
there and get up-to-date info.
Saturday downtown Savannah will be decorated for the season and will also
be First Saturday on the Riverfront. http://www.riverstreetsavannah.com/
And also City Market - http://www.savannahcitymarket.com/ - nice place to
take a carriage ride.
And you can always just wander around historic downtown Savannah. Plenty
to see and do.
Other places to visit:
http://www.mightyeighth.org/ - Mighty 8th Air Force - museum about the
8th Air Force from WWII
http://www.nps.gov/fopu/index.htm - Fort Pulaski - historic fort on the
way to Tybee
http://tybeelighthouse.org/ - Lighthouses? We got one! Care to count the
steps?
http://www.thecrabshack.com/ - want to eat among 'gators'? Don't eat too
much, save some room for OUR "Boil".
There is a change to this year's venue. The City of Tybee pulled rank
and let the Art Association have the cafeteria where we usually have our
Low Country Boil.
We do have reservations to use the Memorial Park Pavilion. It's located
behind Tybee Island City Hall (403 Butler) between 4th and 5th Streets
(the new location is in the same block as the cafeteria, just to the
north side). While it is lighted, it's not enclosed so we need to move
the eating time up to have daylight and warmer breezes. We plan on
serving the Low Country Boil between 3 and 4pm this year. Since the cook
does this for free, patience is suggested. Don't fill up at lunch...
leave room for the shrimp and fixins.
As always, Jerry Duke will be wandering around the Dunes Inn parking lot
Saturday morning so find him if you have any questions.
