Pirate Parties come and go but these parties took it to the Max!! Chris Dorr and friends worked tirelessly for a year in preparation for these parties. They had it all, from barrels of ale to drums of rum, beef roast on a spit. lets not forget the midlevel tavern where wenches and the like could be found. Some of the parties features were a fully operational like suspension bridge which was the only entrance to be found, it was quite the adventure crossing this passage like a drunken fool!!! A real treasure hunt was also in the air, the loot was real jewelry and silver dollars, back when they were actually silver coins. All the treasure was hidden days before the festivities began, what would be a treasure hunt with out a map. Maps were few but if you were lucky enough to find one or join a group that had one you might have been lucky enough to reap a portion of the stash. A ships mast with crows nest was erected and was the center piece of the party, built strong enough to support the many pirates that dared to climb its ropes and peered down upon the rest of us mere mortals. Lets not forget back drops and sound effects to bring your drunken self to the atmosphere of the South Pacific.
