Broward County Nonprofit Organizations

Enter a Representative into the Winterfest Foundation 2023 Jr. Captain Program

Every year, the Winterfest Foundation creates a contest to choose one lucky nominee representing a Broward County nonprofit organization to win the Jr. Captain title and be in the Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade.

The contest is voting-based on social media and runs from August – September. ALL nominees will have the opportunity to be on the Santa Showboat presented by Amazon in the Parade. The “winner” is named Jr. Captain, and their name and the nonprofit’s name are put in lights on a boat in the Parade. During the contest, each organization is represented with a photo and a story to be read, shared, and voted on.
