Admirals Krewe

Induction into the Admirals Krewe of Tybee Fest is earned after serving in a key organizational role for at least  two Pirate Fest events. Tybee Fest, the non-profit, all volunteer organization which produces Pirate Fest and other events on Tybee Island would not be sustainable without the hard work and dedication of its volunteers. Collectively this krewe represents thousands of hours of service to Tybee Fest and the Pirate Fest. Once achieving the designation of an Admirals Krewe member, the Admiral retains this title for life and is presented with a commemorative medal.
