The K Team have announced that they will be taking to the high seas next July and are hi-jacking the Waterford Tall Ships race.
This is an international event and The K Team ‘’Pirates’’ will be making history as the first official team entry from Kilkenny.
The team on board the ship will consist of 16 people from Kilkenny which will comprise 11 members of the K Team and five members of the general public.
The K Team are welcoming applications from the public who would like to go on this adventure of a life time with them, anyone interested should email 00K@the-k-team.org for more information.
‘K33’ in a statement to the Kilkenny Advertiser said: “To enable us to go to sea we will be coming up with some of the zaniest, craziest, funniest, fundraising ideas including a new Christmas album featuring the best Kilkenny songs, a firemans’ calendar featuring the K Team members who are busy getting fit, a leg waxing evening, and much more.
“To kick all this off the K Team are holding a Pirates Ball in Langtons on October 30 next. It will be a splendid night full of surprises, fun, and ‘pure devilment’.”
Tickets cost €25 from participating outlets. All proceeds will go towards the cost of sending the K Team Pirates to sea and maybe a few buckets of paint to continue the battle on Mount Misery.
