Holiday Boat Parade
Saturday, November 11, 2023
The Boat Parade is a holiday fundraiser hosted by the Amityville Police Benevolent Association. See https://allevents.in/amityville/boat-parade-entry/10000716714641787
The Amityville PBA is hosting a holiday boat parade on November 11, 2023. The parade will begin at around 5:30 pm and can be viewed at the Amityville beach. The boats will then proceed to Unqua Yacht Club, where a fundraising event will be held for the Amityville P.B.A. Guardian Angel Foundation. The Amityville P.B.A. Guardian Angel Foundation was formed by the members of the Amityville P.B.A. to financially help their community members who may have fallen on hard times. We currently are accepting applications for this year’s recipient. This year's recipient, once decided by the committee, will be granted all the proceeds raised from this event. Tickets are available prior to the event and WILL NOT be sold at the door. A ticket will include a buffet as well as beer and wine. The Amityville PBA would like to thank you in advance for supporting our local community.
For all those deciding to enter their boat in the parade, an entry of a $75.00 will be collected which will include 2 tickets to attend the fundraiser at Unqua Yacht Club. All entered boats in the parade will be assigned a number and stage in order just east of the Amityville beach. Each boat will parade past the Amityville Beach and a brief holiday greeting will be announced by the MC at the pavilion. For example : Boat number one is captained by Michael Walters - The Walters' family wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday. After the boats proceed past the beach they can dock at the Unqua Yacht Club and attend the fundraising event, where a prize will be awarded for the "Best Decorated Boat." Please make sure to provide a valid email and cell phone number. Specific details will be emailed closer to the event. Any questions email mwalters@amityvillepdny.gov
