An official chapter of Parrot Heads in Paradise (PHIP) the Gators in Paradise Parrot Head Club was founded by "CHERYL WARD" and "KATHY KAZ" in December 2007. The international PHIP is endorsed by Jimmy Buffett our, activities range from community service and charity events to big parties, concerts, road trips and everything between.

CLUB HISTORY:

In early 1989 Scott Nickerson of Atlanta, Ga decided he had met so many great people "tailgating" before Buffett concerts that he should do something to get those people together more than once a year. His idea was to create something different than a typical social or fan club by, forming a group that not only enjoyed a wide variety of social activities but, also provide volunteer support for local (and beyond) community and environmental concerns. After all, Jimmy had set the example with Save the Manatees Club, Friends of Florida, etc. so, it seemed a good bet this concept would appeal to most Parrotheads.

Inspired by sunshine, the national organization, Parrot Heads In Paradise (PHIP) was established in early 1994 in essence, to provide further guidance and support to the ever growing number of local clubs and to give the associated clubs national recognition.
