Come on out to O’Malley’s for our annual oyster roast! This event is our yearly fund raiser for a local charity.

We’ll have non-oyster food (including items for your vegs and vegans!), cornhole, Ashton’s bringing Trivial Pursuit, and PLENTY O’ OYSTERS!! Don’t miss this great opportunity to hang out with students in other programs, eat some great food, and give back to our community!
Tickets will be on sale at the GSA cubicle or from your GSA delegates for $10 in advance and $15 at the door.
Charleston Parks Conservancy will be on hand and they want to meet you! We’ll also have some more information about CPC and our park revitalization project!
