BB Riverboats :: Haunted Pirates of the Ohio {GIVEAWAY}

September 19, 2014 By FFCStaff

BB Riverboats Pirate CruiseFall is upon us, and Halloween is fast approaching (says the Mama that is going to try her hand at MAKING costumes this year).  Sometimes it’s hard to find family friendly Halloween fun that isn’t too spooky for the little ones.  Luckily, BB Riverboats has the perfect family friendly event that’s not-so-scary.  They will be hosting two “Haunted Pirates of the Ohio” cruises in October and you have a chance to win one!  I’ve taken my kids on their Pirate Cruises in the past, and they really are a fun time for all.  They keep the kids busy and entertained for an hour and half and I was entertained watching all the pirate antics while taking in the gorgeous views along the great Ohio River.  I have been recommending this Pirate Cruise to families for years, it’s a memorable outing for everyone.

Here’s more about the Haunted Pirates Cruise from their website:

Come join a Halloween twist of our Pirates of the Ohio cruise this fall. Round up the children and enjoy this 1½ hour fall cruise on the Ohio River. Party with our pirates by showing off your Halloween costume (costume not required), play some Halloween games, and receive your bounty of treats. If you enjoyed our Summer Pirates of the Ohio cruises, this cruise is definitely for you!

The tours will be held on Saturday October 11th and Saturday October 25th from 3:00 – 4:30

GIVEAWAY DETAILS ::

We have a family four pack of tickets to give one lucky winner, and you get to choose either of those cruise dates/times.  Please enter this contest only if you are able to attend one of the two dates listed above.  Entering is easy!
