News for the 2025 Herbster Smelt Fry!

Spring is just around the corner, which means it’s almost time for the 67th Herbster Smelt Fry on April 26! This beloved event brings together the South Shore community for a wonderful smelt and whitefish dinner and raffle. The funds raised are used for community projects to help maintain and improve the things that make Herbster a wonderful place to live and visit. We also raise funds for scholarships for local students to pursue a higher education for up to four years.

This year’s event will have more drawings and bigger prizes than ever before!

The Grand Prize Raffle is $1,000!

There are well over $3,000 in Raffle items!

Tickets are available now – through any of the HCC Board Members (Maureen Felt, Joe Csomos, Joie Pacini, and Katherine Merrill).

Tickets are $5/Each or 5 tickets for $20.

We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you at the Smelt Fry on April 26th!
