On Friday, November 21 beginning at 5:30 p.m., the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum will host Growing up Walsh: Stories from the Outlaw Gunner beginning at 5:30 p.m. in its Van Lennep Auditorium. Seating is limited, with pre-registration needed.
Leading the discussion will be Joe Walsh—the son of The Outlaw Gunner author Dr. Harry M. Walsh, as he shares stories about growing up in the Walsh family. Walsh will also share decoys, battery guns and images from his father’s collection, as well as some of his best family gunning stories about sneak skiffs and sink box shooting.
Known as an avid hunter and waterfowling collector, Dr. Walsh was one of the Waterfowl Festival’s founders and donated much of his waterfowling collection to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum prior to his death in 2009.
The cost for the November 21 program is $6 for CBMM members and $8 for non-members, with pre-registration needed by calling 410-745-4941 or emailing [email protected]. For more information, visit www.cbmm.org.
