What Is a Tapa Hop?
With the purchase of an event ticket you will board one of our Beach Trolleys visiting 6 participating Chamber member restaurants each serving 3 of their specialty “goodies” to munch on and offering a cash bar. With the nominal additional purchase of $1 per Poker Score Card (no limit – while they last) you will draw a Playing Card at each of the 6 locations. The winner will be determined at the final restaurant location (Big Game Bar & Grill) with the best 5-card hand and win a cash split.
Where is the Tapa Hop?
The check in will begin at the Parrot Key Caribbean Grill. Please park in the Big Game Bar & Grill parking lot next door, which will be our final returning location.
When is the Tapa Hop?
Tuesday, Sept. 20th, 2011. Check-In begins 5 p.m. at the Parrot Key Caribbean Grill. The first Beach Trolley will depart promptly at 5:30 p.m. All Trolleys should be returning to the Big Game Bar & Grill by 9 pm for the final prize drawings and awarding the Best Poker Hand.
