Rain? We danced through it. 🌧️🦞💡

Lobster Bake: Neon Nights is officially in the books, and what a night it was!

Mother Nature may have brought a little more water than we ordered, but the PMA community brought the energy! From lobster and tailgating to neon lights, music, raffles, games and plenty of laughs, you proved once again that a little rain can't stop a PMA party. 🎉

A HUGE thank you to everyone who joined us, our incredible sponsors and partners who helped bring Neon Nights to life, our Community Service volunteers who kept the raffle going through every curveball, and everyone behind the scenes who rolled with the weather and kept the night moving.

And judging by the energy during those raffle winner announcements…we'd say you all were having a pretty good time. 😂🙌

Thank you for showing up, embracing the unexpected and making Lobster Bake: Neon Nights one we won't soon forget.

Until next year! 🦞✨
