Lake Osborne Holiday Boat Parade "OYC" Dec. 15 2023 7pm

🚩WEATHER ALERT🚩Read!

Well look who Elfing showed up to "try" and "rain on" the best boat parade eva! The Christmas Pirate Bros! 😡 🏴‍☠️Grinch along with his pal ☠Scrooge are messing with us this year!

As your El Capitàn, you can trust me... I will keep my one eye on the conditions as the week progresses. I WILL NOT put people into hazardous conditions! "IF" we "HAVE To"....we will "POSTPONE" the parade until next weekend. FRI DEC 22nd @7pm. But it will come down to the wire the afternoon of friday. Hopefully we will get a break in the weather and pull it off, but as of now, I'm seeing 50% / 30% chance of rain from NOAA, which isn't bad, and we've lucked out 8yrs in a row, well all except for that one yr...lol and the show still went on!! Wind between 20/30mph with heavy gusts concerns me more.

Keeping my Christmas fingers crossed for the best, but also keeping the safety for the boaters and spectators a Top Priority!

Keep Calm, let El Capitàn handle it! ARgggggg! 🏴‍☠️
