Fancy Farewell

Fancy farewell and beach party are totally informal; congregate in front of the shorehouse/Omni pool on the beach and party like the flockstars you are (keep alcohol hidden and NO GLASS whatsoever); if you want to buy drinks on the beach, you can just walk to the pool bars

50 50 raffle

The parking at Omni is extremely limited so if you are staying within Palmetto Dunes, please ride your bike to the Shorehouse (the pavilion next to the hotel). If you must drive, please make sure you have at least four people in your vehicle so we can maximize the parking spaces. There is a guard at the southern gate house in Palmetto Dunes that will give you a pass to the Omni if you tell him that you’re with Pledge the Pink and heading to the hotel.

Today’s final challenge is “Share a Shell” and it is as simple as it sounds. Find a shell on the beach, give it to a stranger, snap a picture of y’all together, and post it on our Facebook group page with #shareashell. Do it as many times as you’d like and increase your chances of winning!

The Omni will have several full service bars set up around the Shorehouse Pavilion and they will accept cash and credit cards.
Both are totally informal; congregate on the beach near the Omni pool and party like the flockstars you are (keep any alcohol hidden hidden at all times and do not bring any glass with you); if you want to buy drinks on the beach, you can just walk to the pool bars 🙂
If you purchased a tribute sign or someone made a sign for you, you may pick it up between 9am-12pm today near bag drop
The 50-50 raffle will close at 11am and the grand prize winner will be pulled at 11:30am. You don’t have to be present to win, but how much fun would it be to leave the party with a few thousand dollars in your pocket?!
Our merchandise tent will be open from 8:30am until noon today
