In Milwaukee, Wisconsin this weekend is an event near and dear to the Pirate aficionado: shipwrecks and their recovery - The Ghost Ships Festival. There was an article in today's Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel about the team that explored various famous sunken ships, including Blackbeard's ship. Admission is $25 at the door at the Milwaukee Airport Sheraton. Scuttle Sally (Kim Chavez) from the Port Washington Pirate Festival will be there promoting that event. For more details, visit the Ghost Ships Festival web site.

This year's Port Washington Pirate Festival is lucky to have Suburban Motors Harley Davidson as a major sponsor. We are looking for approximately a half dozen pirate queens/ladys/wenches to ride on the back of some gorgeous new Harleys for a Motorcycle Fashion Show, and possibly in the parade as well. The one caveat, due to the circumstances we can not have ladys in long, flowing skirts...while blood at a pirate event is to be expected, we would hate to mess up the bikes. So, for all you Buccaneer Babes whose garb includes pants...I'm looking for a few good pirates! 18 and over only, please. If you are interested, please send me an email dame_one@hotmail.com or pm …

March 20th, 2010 | Swallows Day Parade San Juan Capistrano, CALIFORNIA Not a pirate event, but No Quarter Given (accompanied by the NQG PyRats) will be marching in the parade with the Buccaneers of Tortuga, the Alliance of the Double Cross, and other brethren of the sea to welcome the return of the swallows to San Juan Capistrano. Pirates did raid San Juan Capistrano in 1818, so there is a piratical connection. Parade starts at 11 am, but come much earlier to get good parking. Street closures are at 10 am. Day-long street festival with food and entertainment in the Mercado. Contact information for interested pirates wanting to march coming soon.
