The name “Slush Month” comes from the not-so-beloved snowy “slush” that frequently covers Cape Cod during the month of March – a month when many locals are enduring the last gray days of winter and eagerly awaiting the arrival of spring. Slush Month aims to help Cape residents beat their cabin fever by getting out to socialize and enjoy great food and entertainment, all while supporting local businesses during what is typically a slow month. A percentage of food and drink sales for each night will be donated to CCYP to support the organization’s efforts in the areas of community connection, civic engagement, and career development for young workers on Cape Cod.
“We’re so excited to partner with these great establishments to encourage our Cape Cod community to get out, have fun, and support local businesses during a slow month,” says CCYP CEO Lauren Barker. “And with each event night generously benefiting CCYP, Slush Month is sure to be a fun and easy way to beat the winter blues while supporting the Cape’s local economy and workforce, now and in the future.”
