Galveston Bay Parrot Head Club invites you to join us at our Happy Hour every Friday from 7 to 10pm at Noah's Ark in Bacliff! Posted at 10:29 AM Oct 31 view more
The Galveston Bay Parrot Head Club received its charter from Parrot Heads in Paradise (The National Organization) in December of 1995. The lifestyle we live around the lake, bay and on Galveston Island is perfectly in sync with the philosophies of a true Parrot Head. Our activities tend to center around the lake, bay and the Island and we are closely associated with the environmental concerns that effect the waters and land in our area. Since our birth back in 1995, the club has grown to about 350 members with new members joining each week.
What Do We Do?
The GBPHC meets for happy hours each Friday night at Noah's Ark in Bacliff, Texas where we are fortunate enough to enjoy the entertainment provided by several musicians who are members of the club and who sing a full repertoire of Jimmy Buffett and other Parrot Head friendly tunes. Send an e-mail to president@gbphc.com to find out where the Parrot Heads will be partying on any given weekend.
In July of each year we host "Riddles in the Sand" - "Summer Camp for Parrot Heads", a three-day long convention/festival benefiting many local and national charities. We also do weekend road trips to support other Parrot Head Club's events throughout the region and even plan trips to New Orleans, Guadalupe River floats, pool parties, beach parties, seasonal parties and whenever there are a group of Parrot Heads around, there’s usually an impromptu party !
At the GBPHC, we believe in "Partying with a Purpose" and our events have benefited local charities such as the Bay Area Turning Point, The Child-Life Department at the Shriner's Hospital in Galveston, The Texas Marine Mammal Stranding Network, the Bay Area SPCA and national charities such as Save the Manatee and the Alzheimer’s Association. We have also been involved in the Adopt a Highway Program, the Galveston Beach Cleanup and Galveston Bay Foundation marsh grass plantings.
All of this leads up to our "Christmas in the Caribbean" Christmas party for our members in December. We hope you will come join in the fun with the Galveston Bay Parrot Heads!

Join in the celebration of "The Sinking of The Vandenberg" in Key West on May 15th. This great ship will become an “Island Girl, an artificial reef in the Florida Keys”. Check it out at www. bigshipwrecks. com, you can even hear our new song, "THE VANDENBERG". Take care and may the tide keep pulling you back, Howard and the MM24 Gang
Thanks for supporting the cause! We're the group working to protect the gulf of mexico, and the natural environment that has done so much to inspire Jimmy.
In the wake of Katrina, we know that Louisiana's coastal crisis means more than the loss of some redfish or blue crabs - it means the difference between a sustainable New Orleans and the next Atlantis - take a moment to check out our profile to act now, & please keep spreading the word!
Oh, and we're in the running for a cut of a $50K donation to charity - if you vote for us as many times as possible between now and March we'll get a larger piece of the cake - check it out and help us out
Well let me tell you ! I've have fun singing every time I'm blessed with the chance but never a more enjoyable gig than the two times I've sung for the GBPH. Thanks tell next time - me/jd
