Friend of the Vessel Blanca Masias came up with this idea 7 years ago, and we've been having a blast ever since. It's always been the last Saturday in July. Lots of family love, fun, and food! If you'd like contribute to the festivities, we are taking donations at Shi Lee's BBQ and Soul Food (1213 SW 3rd). Accepting rapid fill water balloons, water guns, water toys, or outside games. ABSOLUTELY NO SINGLE FILL BALLOONS! Thanks for all the love and support!
