The water, the sand, the sun, the music and the fun – that’s life along the Grand Strand! On Saturday, July 21st, Kings Mountain, NC will feel more like Ocean Drive than Kings Mountain as the City celebrates BeachBlast bringing the beach experience downtown to Patriots Park. BeachBlast will begin at 10 am and beach music fans can shag into the summer night with music at the Gazebo featuring The Band of Oz, Atlantic Groove and Jim Quick & the Coastline Band. The water features will include the Rotary Splash Pad and continuous rounds of Water Wars. This free event opens with competition in the Teenie- Weenie Bikini Contest (from newborn to six years old), a watermelon eatin’ contest, a Woodie car show, a Euro Bungie ride, Backyard Chicken Wing Grillin’ Contest, Crank It Up Ice Cream Competition and the Big Beach Ball Drop. A variety of amusement rides will be open all day until 10 pm when the event ends.
A variety of food vendors, from Cajun to barbecue and Italian ice to funnel cake, will be available for every palate. Also, over 50 vendors will be set up at Patriots Park in downtown Kings Mountain with their unique art, crafts and collectibles for sale.
