Amazing! The reaction to our event has been so positive that we have to stop accepting vendor applications for our waitlist. We're overflowing with vendors, and appreciate you all. We'll be updating the webpage vendor list soon, and start posting individual social media mentions in June. Thanks for the support, looking forward to September 12!

This year, the Celebrate Surfside Beach Festival will be supporting the drive to help the Surfside Beach K9 program. K9 Sif, the current four pawed officer is retiring after 9 years of service to the town. The K9 officer has to be trained and vetted, and that costs a surprising amount of money. The benefit of having a K9 officer is incredible, as Sif has assisted in several hundred drug arrests. Please make sure you visit the town booth when you're at the festival to learn more about Sif and the work she has done.

We have Ed Piotrowski WPDE in the dunk tank at the Celebrate Surfside Beach Festival, and the tropical storms all avoid the area. Coincidence? I think not! You have to come back next year, Ed, we need to prove the theory.

We want to thank the visitors, vendors, volunteers, sponsors and the Town of Surfside Beach for the great event we had! We reached some significant milestones this year. We sold out of space in less than 7 days. We broke the Dunk Tank. There were so many people throwing balls, we snapped a welded steel rod, and we had to rotate the crew of ball retrievers. Major League Baseball scouts, please take note. We sold more chance tickets than before. We had vendors sell out of merchandise. The weather was perfect, and there were smiles everywhere. We're already planning next year's event. We will have more vendors, and improved Dunk Tank (we hope), and raise more money for our charities. We couldn't do it without you.
