Oysters take the spotlight at the annual OysterFest in Shelton, Washington, held the first full weekend in October on the former runway of Port of Shelton Sanderson Field. Sponsored by the Shelton Skookum Rotary Club Foundation, the state’s official seafood festival draws thousands of visitors from all over the state and beyond.
The highlight of the festival? Food, of course! About a hundred food items show up on the menu every year. Not surprising, the majority are based on oysters. If there is a way to prepare fresh oysters, the vendors have it covered. Selections include BBQ oysters, oyster shooters, oysters Rockefeller, oyster fritters, oyster stew, oyster on the half shell, bacon-wrapped scallops or oysters, clam chowder, crab and shrimp cocktail, coconut prawn, fireman’s chili, shrimp and lobster rolls, baked salmon, geoduck fritters, garlic shrimp, spring rolls, deep-fried mushrooms, and fresh cider. There is also a wine tent featuring Washington wines and a microbrew area.
The festival offers plenty of entertainment as well. Four stages, one just for kids, highlight talented bands and vocal groups. There are also games and rides just for kids, an art contest, and a seafood cook-off with cash prizes. But the biggest attention-getter is the shucking championships. On day one of the festival, participants shuck twenty-four oysters as fast as they can, sometimes in under two minutes. It’s almost as if some of the contestants received oyster-shucking tutoring in Shelton! On the second day, speed is still a factor, but presentation is also important. Contestants again shuck twenty-four oysters, but this time they must place each oyster on its back into the half shell. Points are deducted for pieces of shell or cuts in the oyster itself. About 500 dozen oysters, all donated, are used for the contest, with the shucked oysters from each heat shared with the audience after judging.
While it’s mostly about food and fun, there is also a serious side to the festival. Festival goers will also learn plenty about tidal areas, stewardship of marine resources, water quality, aquaculture, natural resources, and public safety at the educational booths. There is also a photography and art show.
The OysterFest is a non-commercial, non-political event, and all vendors and exhibitors are non-profit organizations that operate in Mason County, Washington. No political or commercial booths are allowed. Most visitors find this refreshing. Proceeds fund local community improvement projects and scholarships, many of which are based on academic strength. Students who implement tutoring in Shelton definitely have the advantage when applying to these and can thank the Shelton OysterFest for supporting education in Shelton!

How does the process work?
Families share goals and scheduling preferences through a short intake. That information becomes a learner profile. Grade Potential then introduces your profile to a professional independent tutor whose background aligns. Once the tutor accepts, you’re introduced directly and sessions can begin.
How is pricing handled?
Our packages are highly customizable based on your budget, preferred session cadence, time frame, location, and a few other factors. You’ll be presented with clear pricing before you begin. We support families in choosing the session length and cadence that works best for their individual situation; no hard sales tactics and no obligation to purchase a long-term package.
How soon can sessions start?
Typically within 2-3 business days, depending on subject, location, and schedule availability. Urgent timelines are noted in your profile so introductions prioritize your timing.
Where do sessions take place?
In-person at home or another convenient, quiet, safe location (like the local library). When families need flexibility, online sessions are also available.
Who are the tutors?
Experienced, professional independent tutors with strong subject knowledge and a track record of working one-on-one with students. Many hold degrees in their fields; some are certified teachers or graduate students with specialized expertise.
Are background checks performed?
Yes—safety is our top priority. Tutors complete screening through Simpliverified background checks, consistent with local requirements and platform standards.
What if the tutor isn't the right fit?
Just let Grade Potential know. Your profile can be introduced to a different tutor at no cost to you, and once accepted, you’ll be re-introduced so sessions continue without losing momentum.
What subjects and grade levels are available?
Support spans elementary through college across all core subjects (math, reading, writing, science, languages) plus test prep (e.g., SAT/ACT, AP, GRE) and many electives. If it’s taught in school, there’s likely a tutor with relevant experience. Adult learners can also benefit from tutoring services in a wide variety of subjects.

Most families choose 60-90 minute sessions 1-2 times per week. Cadence and length are set directly with the tutor to fit the student’s goals, pace, and schedule.

Often, yes! Especially when goals and levels are similar. There’s no additional cost for siblings to share sessions, so feel free share details in your intake so we can advise on the right tutoring package for you.
Do tutors coordinate with teachers or IEP/504 plans?
Yes! When families request it, tutors can review teacher notes, school portals, and accommodation plans to keep sessions aligned with classroom expectations.
