Clams, clams and more clams! That’s the theme. And with as much food as the Manahawkin Elks Lodge 2340 will have available for its annual clam bake, there’s really no reason to skip it.

On Saturday, July 25, the Elks plan to have an estimated 10,000 clams, and you might want to arrive closer to the 1 p.m. start time instead of the 5 p.m. end time. The lodge is located at 520 Hilliard Blvd.
