The Wonderful World of Water Festival

Beaufort prepares for annual events

Since the first festival was held in July 1956, Beaufort has been perfecting ways to have fun and stay cool during the hot summer days and nights. This year’s Water Festival stays true to tradition with family friendly programs, lots of live music, competitive sporting tournaments, as well as a slew of water and air events. Commodore John Gentry said he is in awe of the more than 400 volunteers who work hard to put the festival together, and he’s also impressed by all the sponsors who stepped it up to ensure 2012 is another awesome year for everyone who comes to enjoy and experience all the Water Festival has to offer.
