 Tacoma Yacht Club’s Daffodil Weekend is rapidly approaching. This year’s theme is “Service with a Heart”. We would like to cordially invite you to join the 67th annual Daffodil Marine Festival and Parade.
The basin crew will be ready to welcome visiting boaters beginning at noon on Thursday, April 11th. If you are coming by boat, we will find moorage for you; however we cannot always guarantee power. Also, we cannot guarantee that you will have pet friendly access to shore so please consider before bringing your dogs.
 On Friday afternoon from 2-4pm join us on the TYC deck for FREE Beer and Appetizers. There will be a lottery drawing Friday night at 7pm for trivia seating and your placement in the Token Parade. After the drawing the entertainment begins with Brant Butte, Let's Dance DJ. The dance party will be a 70's themed event where we will be awarding prizes for BEST Costumes. Think tie-dyed, Disco, Charlie's Angels, roller skates and the beginning of Saturday Night Live! You all put your best foot forward last year, so get ready and let's get the Dancing Queens out there for a rocking good time.
One of the highlights of the weekend is trivia along with the Token Parade on Saturday afternoon. Please take careful note of the following for trivia:
- We will be using the new Trivia format that was presented last year.
- Each club will select a team of not more than six people to compete in the trivia contest.
- These official teams will be seated in the first rows. Their exact location will be determined by the lottery drawing.
- Once the teams are seated, other club members will be escorted into the ballroom.
Saturday night we will feature the party band “The Tropics”. Sunday, the weekend will culminate with the Decorated Boat Parade along Tacoma waterfront. We are looking forward to seeing your creative efforts!
Each club must register and each boat or RV planning on attending must complete a registration form and pay the registration fee (non-refundable) $25. The registration deadline is March 22, 2019 or until we reach our limit. If you have questions, please refer to our website or email Bentley Rickmers at: tycdaffodil@gmail.com.
