Golden Parrot, Games, Contests, Costumes, Themes...

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 then 12″ wide and 24″ long.
  • 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!
