Copper Kettle welcomes mermaids, pirates during Under the Sea Tea

Posted

FOLEY - Typically once each year, mermaids make their way from the water to The Copper Kettle, but this year on Fri., Aug. 30, the tables were turned as pirates journeyed across the land and Under the Sea to enjoy a night of festivities with the merfolk.

Specially blended Oxygen was served to all land dwellers so they could spend the evening among the creatures of the sea, followed by a wide variety of teas hot and cold, and a delicious meal prepared by the ship’s chef and crew. For this year’s annual tea, Neptune joined his people, only to find his trident had been stolen. Guests were sent on a scavenger hunt to search for clues for the missing trident, meeting mermaids along the way, building sandcastles with Janel of Sand Castle University, and playing games with the pirates to win golden coins and shells to present to the mermaids for clues.

Entertainment was provided by the Gulf Coast Pirates - Dillion, Joey, Josi, and Isabella -, the Gulf Coast Mermaids - Abi, Alica, and Evelyn -, and Kara, artist and Original Copper Kettle Mermaid.
