You’ll be happy as a clam at this year’s annual Shelton Skookum Rotary OysterFest, taking place October 6-7 in Shelton, next to the Port of Shelton airport. You don’t have to love, or even like, seafood to have fun at the largest festival in the area, which serves as the largest fundraising event in the Puget Sound Area.
