Shiver Me Timbers! It’s Almost Time for the Midwest Pirate Fest!
It’s time to dust off your pirate gear, as the 2018 Midwest Pirate Fest is almost upon us! Grab your eye patch, sword, and coin bag, as come August 25th it’s time to search for treasure (or as pirates would say ‘booty’). This fun for all ages event is located at the beautiful Bellevue Berry Farm and Pumpkin Patch in Papillion. Check out the stranded pirate ship and Pirate’s Pub tavern. Spend time in the Pirate’s Port, the Enchanted Forest, and the sea-side towne. Bounce a bit in the inflated pirate boat, or feel the wind in yer face on the Heave-Ho pirate ship swing! Be sure to brush up on your pirate terms and phrases too. We listed some below for you ~ Happy Treasure Hunting!
