Pub crawls, parade and fireworks planned at Sylvan Beach

If you?re in Sylvan Beach this weekend, don?t be surprised if you?re asked to walk the plank.

Friday through Sunday, The Sylvan Beach/Verona Business Association will host its first Pirate?s Weekend.

The weekend kicks off with a Pirate?s Grog Pub Crawl at 5 p.m. It starts at Captain John?s and Crazy Clam and could end at any of the eight to 10 participating bars.

Free samples will be offered at each bar, and crawlers will be asked to vote on their favorite grog.

At 9 a.m. Saturday, kids can comb the beach during the treasure hunt. More than 250 toys donated by Dollar General will be buried.

At noon, the Pirates Parade led by ?Captain Jack Sparrow? gets underway. Participants must dress as pirates and ride on pirate-themed floats.

Spectators can get on in on the theme as well, said Elaine DePerno-Brown, Captain John?s owner and association member.

?We?re calling all pirates to head to the beach,? she said.

More than 15 groups have signed up to march, and the grand marshals have been named: John DePerno, Elaine?s father who started the restaurant and a founding village trustee; and former Mayor Edward McCarthy.

At 9 p.m. Saturday, free S?mores will be offered at a bonfire on the beach.

Sunday will offer a Bloody Mary Pub Crawl all day and fireworks over the beach at 9:30 p.m.

All of the weekend?s events are free.
