Aquapalooza 2011 is a fun-filled family day on the water with water activities for the kids and fantastic prize giveaways hosted by Skyline Marina, their Aquapalooza 2011 event was a huge success. The Canadian Yachting team counted 250 + boats early in the day and at least 1200 people…. and the band "Surprise" was rocking by noon.

Aquapalooza 2011 took place last Saturday, July 23, and ran from 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM. This is a major, annual On-Water party that's quickly becoming a fixture on everyone calendar. This year the Skyline Team hosted the event again at Papoose Bay, located on the southern end of Beausoleil Island, Georgian Bay. The Aquapalooza 2011 event is water access only.
