Red Sea Trade Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 I have been asked by the local Boy Scout Council to help with a Cub Scout day camp in Melbourne, Florida in June, 2009. The organizers are hoping to have a crew of pirates come in for an afternoon to teach the kids a bit about local pirates. Emphasis will be on fun, although they aren't averse to a bit of history thrown in. The specifics: Date--Friday, June 5th Time--12-4pm, with a request for a 30 minute "show" around noon. We can set up as early as 9am, if we wish. Place--Wickham Park (about 3 miles east of I-95 in Melbourne) They can't pay anything (hey, they're Cub Scouts), but I will be serving up tasty period rations to those who can help out.

hurricane Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Ahoy! We know the spot well, since our entire crewe is based three blocks from the park. Unfortunately we're all at Blackbeard Festival that weekend in Hampton VA. Isn't that always the way it is. :) -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Red Sea Trade Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 First, I will try not to seeth with jealous resentment, that you lucky dogs get to go to the Blackbeard Festival. Ah, but all is not lost! Any chance that the following Friday, 1/12, would be any better? The day camp runs two weeks, and they are looking to fill both Fridays.
