The Pirates of Lost Treasure, Inc. was established in 1992 in Perdido Key when a small group of swashbucklers from the Key hung a sign on the Reef’s door inviting all who were adventurous and lighthearted to apply for Piratehood. The result was a club of hearty, generous pirates that not only wanted to parade and party, but to help neighbors at the same time.
The Pirates are dedicated to fun, parading on its grand float, the Bloody Bucket, and community involvement. The krewe participates in many activities throughout the year, ranging from Relay for Life and beach cleanup campaigns, to greeting snowbirds and supporting the Frank Brown Songwriters Festival. Its primary mission however, is supporting Secret Santa. Each Christmas, Secret Santa provides food, clothing and toys to needy local families.
The Pirates have helped many panhandle residents who were down on their luck and still find time to put the wind back into there sails and have a good time.
Its 125 select members and associates are always finding creative ways to raise money through events such as poker runs, kayak races, this golf tournament and food booth during the annual Flora-Bama Mullet Toss. Krewe members meet monthly at the Perdido Sports Bar. For membership info, email b1barrios@aol.c
