What a whirlwind! This year we created the Thames river with the wapping docks and hanged pyrates to boot! We had an awsome time, I'm not sure of the count, but there had to have been at least 3500 people each night.. Penelope and Heather did an awsome job this year with the Bakersfield Safe Halloween, they really out did themselves.. A very much needed thank you goes out to Mission Family Mortuary in Bakersfield for sponsoring the trick or treat station. We couldn't have done it without Mission Family! In other news...We payed a visit to St. Francis School and raided the 6th grade class of Mrs Bowman..The kids were awsome and had a ton of questions. Rolled one of the cannons into the class room and the kids went crazy! While we were in class I just sorta looked down at all the knives, cutlasses, muskets and pistols thinking to myself, This wouldn't happen in a public school.. Kenneth.
Based in Bakersfield California, we teach, live and recreate the Golden Age of Pyracy. Swift camps, sail crews to sewing, wood carving to chart making, we are a group of craftsmen of all things Nautical. If we can't find it, we make it, if we can find it, we buy one and then make the rest ourselves. We are always on the look out for Sailors so send us an email to find out how to join.

Holy Mary!
It's been a while since an update! We have a few new crew members, taken the skiff out countless times and we now have cannons! Two to be exact. We have Ojai Pirate Faire coming in Sept 2009 and the Kern County Museum Bakersfield safe halloween 2009 on the horizon. Lamplight to follow. Speaking of lamplight, we have been making our own lanterns as of late and they look very nice. So far Bakersfield has been giving us a few people at a time, but it is better to grow slow, right!? If you're interested in joing the Bakersfield Pirate group, Kern county pirate guild, please contact us so we can get you started. We have a lot of fun and we really enjoy reenacting history.
