Captain Redbeard thanks the sponsors, presenters and volunteers for their hard work, gracious donations and support for the Pirate Festival on Honeoye Lake.  This event will encourage tourism and revenue for our businesses in Honeoye.  A percentage of the festival funds will be donated to StreetScape, a Main Street Revitalization Project.

Many businesses and community residents are asking how they can get involved or support the festival.  We have put together the following ideas.  Any way you can help will help the community you live in.

Each business or organization can support the event with decorating your business storefront and set up displays inside with brochures and posters.  You can have employees wear costumes or festival t-shirts.  Ask your employees or staff to be knowledgeable on festival events for the weekend.  Welcome tourists to Honeoye for a return visit or possibly a potential new homeowner.  You can wear pirate, English or Irish style costumes or festival t-shirts.

Captain Redbeard Benefit Fundraiser
Each year the festival committee will sponsor a benefit fundraiser to kick-off the Treasure Hunt and Annual Captain Redbeard's Feast.  This event is open to the public, sponsors, and krewe.  Our famous Treasure Hunters must attend.  Details forthcoming!

Curse of Redbeard's Treasure
The annual Curse of Redbeard's Treasure is a lead in to our festival.  Hunters will visit local businesses, area attractions, and Honeoye sights to increase business visability and revenue.  This also gives us the advertising exposure before the festival each year.  Each business is asked to donate $100 to the treasure chest by July 20th.  Our Treasure Hunters pay an entry fee for their packets which include rules and their first clue. 

Another way to sponsor the festival is to volunteer your time for the weekend or even a couple of hours.  Join the krewe and have fun! 

Don't have time?  Then sponsor an event or make a donation.  Sponsor fee must be
received by August 10th, for signage.
