Educating Youth and Inspiring Exploration of the Past
Founded in 1982, The Ancient City Privateers, a unique organization, enlists enthusiastic individuals who embrace the spirit of piracy while dedicating their efforts to educating children and organizing entertaining fundraising events. Drawing inspiration from the rich maritime history of St. Augustine, Florida, the Privateers embody the adventurous and swashbuckling spirit associated with pirates, all while channeling that energy into positive community engagement.
These events often feature interactive activities such as storytelling and costume contests that engage attendees and spark their imagination. Through these educational initiatives, the Privateers instill a sense of curiosity and wonder about history, encouraging others to explore the past while having fun in a positive environment.
