Our Key Accomplishments

We are very proud of our key accomplishments in the sand sculpting industry. Since our founding we have managed well over 30 "major" successful sand sculpting competitions along with dozens of smaller competitions and events.

• In 2023 working with Visit Manitowoc and the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary we launched the first major sand sculpting competition in Wisconsion, "The Wisconsin Sand Sculpting Festival". It was a huge success and has been scheduled for 2024.

• In 2022 along with our partners in Michigan City Indiana launched the first ever sand sculpting event not only in Indiana but on Lake Michigan, The Singing Sands Sand Sculpting Festival.

• 2022, 2003, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014 and 2013 we produced the first and only Master Level sand sculpting competition in the state of Michigan. Michigan Sand Sculpting State Championships.

• 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012 - we managed the largest sand sculpting competition ever held in the state of Florida.

• 2016 - Established the first Advanced Amateur National Championships, as a part of the American Sand Sculpting Championships 30th year.

• 2013 - We produced and managed the first ever all women's sand sculpting competition.

• 2011- we teamed up with the Director of the World Championships and his assistant to manage the World Championship of Sand Sculpting Solo Competition on Fort Myers Beach.

• 2010 - we were a part of the team who founded and established The Crystal Classic on Siesta Key. At this time it was the only doubles competition in the U.S.

• We believe in giving back to the local community, testament of this is the $600,000 our team has directly/indirectly donated to local charities in previous years.

Why Choose Our Team?

Simple, we have the "proven" experience. Currently we are managing five annual sand sculpting events and each of them are not only successful but, growing each year. Why? Because we do our research to see if the event would (along with many other considerations) be beneficial to the local economy and have sustainability.

100% Turn key - We manage everything, from sculptors to equipment.

Project Management - The key to the success of an event: We don't just claim to be project managers, we are educated and certified project managers. We take the time to plan everything. Project, communication and logistic plans are essential to any successful event.

Site Development, Set up and management - Including to scale plans/layout.

Vendors - We have a database of hundreds of vendors waiting to attend your new event. We are accustom to managing well over 100 vendors for one event.

Permitting - Along with permitting over 12 major sand sculpting events, as a previous Town Manager Bill has extensive experience in permitting and working with local, State and Federal Governments.

Volunteer Management - Volunteers can be not only a very important part of an event, they can quickly become the backbone. In all of our events, we coordinate and team with hundreds of volunteers.

Web site Management - We have been designing, developing and maintaining web sites for well over 10 years.

Logistics Planning - One step further than project management. You have to have a firm understanding of logistics to ensure everything arrives on-site at the scheduled time. There are many, many moving parts to operating an event. Poor Logistics cost you money.

Licensed, Insured, Bonded - We are licensed, insured and bonded and have been since we opened our company. It's an important question to ask "DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE AND WHAT KIND?"....DO NOT RISK hiring a company that does not have suitable insurance or that is unable to add you as an additional insured on their policy.

Consulting - Maybe you don't want to hire us to run your event and just need some guidance, we would love to be your consultant.

Budget Management - When it comes to event management, this is one area that is commonly over looked. We have managed sand sculpting budgets exceeding 200k and in the corporate world over 300m dollar budgets.

Like we said......100% turn key.
