Richmond County’s largest employers shucked the night away Thursday at the Richmond County Airport for the annual Industry Appreciation Oyster Roast.

The event is organized by Richmond County Economic Development and the Richmond County Chamber of Commerce to thank the local business leaders for doing business in the county.

The event has taken several forms in the past, ranging from a golf tournament to a banquet before organizers settled on an oyster roast.
