The Lake Erie Pirates:
Who we are and what we do:
The Lake Erie Pirates Costume Organization™ is a volunteer group of pirate enthusiasts that participates
in charity events, conventions, living histories and various other public events. We work to bring the
experience of the Golden Age of Piracy as well as the Pirates of the Caribbean© films, to people of all ages
all over the Western Pennsylvania, Western New York and Eastern Ohio at no cost.
Our crew is comprised of passionate individuals from various walks of life. These individuals portray
either Pirates of the Caribbean© characters or characters that they themselves created. These self created
characters are historically accurate as possible to pirates who lived during the 1600's and 1700's.
Our Mission:
Our mission is to serve the community by providing quality, family entertainment and education
through a fun, yet accurate, portrayal of popular pirate characters.
Event Information:
What we can do for you and your event:
We specialize in what we call “wandering entertainment.” This meaning that we walk around your event
interacting with your patrons, posing for pictures, and handing out “treasure” to every child we meet.
Another form of entertainment we offer is a weapons and combat demonstration where we perform a
small, choreographed, sword fight and a fun, interactive, history of real piracy. We also have an expert
magician who can perform a small, pirate themed, magic show.
We are also prepared to help promote the event, collect donations, and help out in any other way that you
might need.
What we need from you if we are to attend:
As you can imagine with this type of entertainment there are certain things we require in order to
perform at each event. Each event is different and with that in mind we might require different
accommodations for each type. Here is a list of what we might ask of you:
This is so we can get into costume beyond the view of the public. Also we ask that the area is
secure so we may store any valuables.
These costumes can get very hot and it is important for us to stay hydrated. Bottles preferred.
If an indoor event, we might want to set up our table display to help promote our organization.
If an outdoor event, we might want to set up our historically accurate tent, with display, to
help promote our organization.
Accommodations can be discussed when booking event. Donations accepted. A two month notice is
preferred so we may schedule accordingly.
The Lake Erie Pirates Costume Organization™ cannot at any time guarantee how many pirates nor
which pirate characters will be in attendance at any and all events.
The Lake Erie Pirates Costume Organization™ reserves the right to cancel attendance to any event up to
72 hours prior to the event. Any cancellation after 72 hours would be do to uncontrollable circumstances.
(ex. unfavorable weather, poor traveling conditions, etc.)
