The 2nd Annual Beach and Beef Crab Feed was held on February 12, 2011, and was incredibly successful, due to wonderful public support. The event featured all you can eat crab, beef kabobs and many delicious side dishes, along with raffle items, a small silent and live auction. A casual evening of fun and great food resulted in netting over $35,000 for Hermiston Education Foundation. The Highland Hills Marimba band and Sandstone Middle School’s Jazz band entertained guests.
