Hey locals in the tourism industry, stop by the The Shark on the Harbor for your 2nd season discount pass.

Happy Labor Day! This is a perfect day to honor some of our community’s hardest workers - with the introduction of our INDUSTRY DISCOUNT CARD!

Did you know that “tourism supports 13,408 jobs in Worcester County, generates $1.5 billion in visitor spending and $301.3 million in tourism tax revenues.”
Source: Tourism Economics

Every day we receive word of someone in our tourism community having referred one of our restaurants to a guest, a friend or a family member. We've been searching for a way to show our appreciation…and here it is!

Starting September 5th, stop by to apply for an industry discount card: the 2nd Season Pass — a way to celebrate the hard working friends in our tourism community who have been brave enough to follow an alternative professional path. A creative group of passionate people who work harder than most and give more than many. When money is abundant, their time isn't.

This off season, we hope to offer a way to celebrate our friends with a little savings at BOTH The Shark on the Harbor AND at Culture / Authentic Eatery.

Starting Tuesday, September 5th, stop by either restaurant to apply for your 2nd Season Pass! Please bring proof of current employment in Worcester County in any visitor oriented industry (tourism, hospitality, entertainment) along with your photo ID. A manager will authorize your application, and you will receive confirmation of membership details as well as a date to pick up your card. (First round of pick ups will be the week after Sunfest.)

Thank you all!

Cheers!
