Second Annual Vanderbilt Clam Bake
Vanderbilt Museum
Saturday, July 27, 2013

The second annual Vanderbilt Clam Bake was held at the historic Vanderbilt Museum on Saturday, July 27th. This fundraising event was held to support the museum's various education programs.

Guests enjoyed an evening of delicious food, music and dancing under the stars at the beautiful Vanderbilt estate on a hilltop above Northport Bay. The menu for the evening included whole steamed lobsters, clams, mussels, clam chowder, BBQ chicken, burgers, hot dogs, roasted potatoes, corn on the cob, wine and beer (below left). Everything was fresh and delicious. 

There were a number of vintage automobiles for guests to check out, including the 1926 Stutz Speedster originally owned by General Cornelius and Grace Vanderbilt III (above right). Guests were also welcome to wander the estate and the grounds. Chandeliers glowed underneath the canopy of the tent while classic hits from the '50s and '60s set the tone for a perfect night.

Attendees also had the opportunity to try their hand at golf during the "Closest To The Pin" competition (above left). Lance Reinheimer, Interim Executive Director, gave his complimentary speech thanking guests for attending this charitable event and introducing various notables and politicos that were in attendance (above right). The evening's fare concluded with a light dessert while guests were dancing to the music and relaxing with friends on the historic grounds of the Vanderbilt Mansion.
