  "Pitchburst was the hit of the carnival... terrific fun, and it paid for itself in one day!"  
   

 

Pitchburst was invented as a last-minute dunk tank alternative during the drought of 1999 in Bucks County, PA, when local water use restrictions prohibited filling a 500 gallon dunk tank for a Make A Wish fund-raising backyard carnival. The patented game is now in use coast to coast and internationally through rental and party planning companies, special event planners, schools, charities, country clubs and fun loving families.
