August 9, 2014 will find the historic Taft district bursting with the creative energy of The Annual Siletz Bay Sandcastle Contest.

One can of food per contestant will “pay” for registration, which starts at noon.  After registration, contestants may begin constructing their sandy marvel while onlookers enjoy the action.

Want to build something other than a castle?  Never Fear! Each individual or team is allowed to choose the subject matter of their sand sculpture – just bear in mind this is a family friendly event.

The judges will evaluate the afternoon’s results between 3 and 4 pm with an award ceremony to follow, where prizes will be awarded.

Sound like a good day at the beach, to you?
