Blockader crowd control barricades were a presence during the annual Fells Point Festival in Baltimore on October 3-4.
The popular restaurant and bar Shuckers of Fells Point rented 40 interlocking steel barricades for its outdoor Beer Garden during the festival. Approximately 250 feet of barricades were placed around the building, while the restaurant had personnel providing security at the open locations at which patrons could enter or exit the area.
In previous years, Shuckers had used poles and snow fencing around the Beer Garden area during the festival, but they switched to Blockader barriers for the 2009 event. The crowd control barricades established the boundaries of the area with more authority, said Andy Rosenthal, Shuckers of Fells Point Director of Marketing. Both the restaurant and the festival organizers were pleased with the performance of the barriers.
