Talk Like a Pirate Day Celebration

Ahoy Mateys!

Buccaneers and Scallywags alike are invited to attend the “Talk Like A Pirate Day” celebration at Gifts From The Heart Of Elk Grove.

Enjoy pirate themed games, activities, and sweet treats in the new ocean-themed party room.

Special pirate guests and their ship will be docking here for a fundraiser you won’t want to miss!

Here’s the the story:

Christian is an energetic and adventurous 10-old-boy who loves to go to Renaissance and adventure fairs with his family. He is also wheelchair-bound and has been since of the age of 8. Christian has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a muscle-wasting disease that is fatal. The average life expectancy for boys with DMD is 21. There is no cure for DMD.

A few “pirates” had the good fortune to meet Christian and see his love of adventure first-hand. They have built him an amazing pirate ship that fits around his wheelchair so he and his family can take on even more high-seas adventures, but they will need a custom hitch for their wheelchair-accessible van and a trailer to take this special ship with him on future travels.

Your donation will not only entitle you to passage on an 18 ft. Pirate Ship, complete with shootable water cannons, but you may also have your face painted, pose for photos with the ship’s crew, and pick a prize from the pirate’s treasure chest. You will also be helping to make Christian’s Pirate Dream come true!
