How It Began

On September 10, 2011, Pam & Rich Ray and Marion & Randy Laskowitz were enjoying the tropical tunes of Gary Sluhan at Belmont Vineyards and Winery. Because of their mutual love of Jimmy Buffett, they began discussing the possibility of starting a local Parrot Head Club.

After some research and contacting Parrot Heads In Paradise, a petition signing was held on January 29, 2012 – again at Belmont Vineyards. 26 phun loving potential Parrot Heads signed the petition requesting sanctions by the above mentioned organization. On February 4, 2012 they received the word that the Route 66 Parrot Head Club had become a sanctioned member of the Parrot Heads In Paradise, the International Organization of Parrot Heads, and now consist of 100 members and growing!
