This year, we are bringing back the competition to win The Golden Parrot! Points will be awarded from competitions and also participation!

Last year, the Shark Race was a huge success. Still wanting to utilize the water park and increase club involvement, we’re asking your club to build and donate a boat. The boats will be auctioned off, similar to years past, and there will be wagering during the race. Here are basic rules for your club to follow.

• Please let your imagination run wild.
• Boats should be no larger than approximately 18″ wide and 24″ long (will not be measured).
• No motors allowed.
• Any decorations must be secured well as to not fall off and cause any damage to the pool.
• You will be asked to provide a short presentation about your boat during Friday night’s auction – think skit, story or song. Please limit to 90 seconds.
• Costumes are encouraged.
• We are limiting the boats to 12, so please register as soon as Sign-Ups are announced to reserve your spot.
• The club’s boat that raises the most money at auction- 1 point
• Boat race winner- 3 points awarded to the club that built the boat, 2 points to second place, 1 point to third

Parrot Heads love a theme. Please encourage your club members to take part in the theme nights. Points will be awarded for best costumes on Friday and Saturday. Judging will be impartial.

• Thursday night: Parrothead best
• Friday night: 80’s
• Saturday night: Pirate Ball

Costume contest on Friday and Saturday nights with points going to the winners club

• Best group costume each night- 1 point
• Best Individual costume each night (cannot be a part of the group consideration) Male and Female- 1 point each

Last year’s survey told us you wanted more nonmusical options, so we planned 3 games for your enjoyment and points tally for your club.

• Thursday: Parrotheads Up
  During the entertainment break, 1 club at a time will gather on the dance floor. 1 member will try to guess the words or phrases the others are acting out. 1 point for each correct answer
• Friday: Island Shimmy Showdown
  There will be 2 participants per club connected at the waist by an outstretched slinky with a cd attached. The idea is to move the cd along the slinky back and forth, hula style. 1st place 3 points, second place 2 points, third place 1 point
• Saturday: Pirate Booty Balloon pop
  Players dressed in pirate gear will pop balloons, between each other, not using hands- 1st place 3 points, second place 2, third place 1 point

Further information will be posted soon as well as the option to Sign-Up!

Thank you and see you at the Cape!
