Continuing its tradition, the Original Oyster House restaurants & Geez Louise Boutique will close the Sunday after Labor Day on September 11, 2016, for its 29th Annual Employee Picnic. Employees of the Original Oyster House and Geez Louise Boutique and their immediate families are thanked for a job well done with a family fun day at Waterville USA.

Last year’s picnic included an opportunity to dunk management, a great lunch and lots of raffle and door prizes donated by Buffalo Rock, Academy Sports, Craft Farms, Backcountry Trails, Compass Media, Delta Safaris, Alabama Paddlesports, Zebra Marketing, BCBS of AL, Waterville USA and Geez Louise Boutique. Five employees chosen from a pool of employees who strove for perfect attendance, won $500 each. Also employees brought can goods for Prodisee Pantry, a faith-based non-profit community ministry providing emergency food and disaster relief in Baldwin County.

The Original Oyster House celebrated its 30th year in business in 2013 and has many staff members who have grown with the company throughout these years. The restaurants and retail stores regularly recognize staff members and encourage their involvement and creative ideas to decrease expenses and improve service.
