The Beginning of FlockFest

It all started in 2015 when Steven Crawford  invited some friends to the beach. “I contacted a bunch of friends for a fun time at the beach, told them to bring swan floats and be prepared for a great time”, Crawford shares. And that is how FlockFest was born.

 

That first gathering was just a small group of 60 people and 30 floats. Now the event has now grown to over 800 floats, 1500 VIP’s and several thousand more attendees that participate outside in the event area on the beach. 

 

The Flock Spreads Its Wings

As it grew each year, Steven thought this could be a great way to raise money for charitable organizations and in 2017 we started to raise money for charities. Today, that is still our main purpose and we have grown with additional events around the year. The most amazing thing about this annual sensation is that the nonprofit beach event has seen noticeable growth over the years.

 

In 2020, Ryan Young was added to the FlockFest Board as VP of Programming and Community Relations, and spearheaded the addition of our flagship partnership with Bar Rita on their weekly event called, ‘Pride Mondays’. Ryan added, “Shortly after, we added ‘Wednesday Fla-Mingle’ at Tatts and Tacos in Oakland Park. Many Flockers that live further North wanted an option that was closer to home”. The gatherings are a hit and as the Flock spreads its wings, the good they do spreads far and wide as well. No wonder it is a hit!
