LAKE JACKSON — The 59th annual Brazosport Rotary Club Shrimp Boil on Saturday is technically last year’s.
“It was originally scheduled for the beginning of October, which is when we normally have it, and in the summer we pushed it back,” Shrimp Boil chairman Scott Ferry said, citing the COVID-19 pandemic.
