I’m from the Cape, but have never been to anything Figawi. This would be really fun to attend!
I wish I was a local reader!!
I would like to attend this event bc I am new to Boston. It would be a chance to meet new people and I just heard of Figawi recently!!
I moved to Boston in Februrary and would love to meet new people and get involved- I would love to attend!!
February** Promise I can spell š
I love all things about the Cape and would love to attend!
I’d love to go because despite living on the Cape my whole life and participating in the regatta, I’ve never been to the ball!
I want to win b/c I love the cape, dancing, and doing good. And food. There will be food, right?
I haven’t been to the Cape in a while and I think this would be super fun! Especially after spending the afternoon at a bridal shower…extend the celebrations!
This sounds like such a fun way to help a great cause! I would love to attend.
I would love the chance to get away right after taking the exam i have been studying for for 9 months! it would be great to take my boyfriend to something more than the library!
I have had many friends sail Figawi! Would love to attend the charity ball!
This sounds like such a fun event. I am always looking for excuses to go to the Cape.
I would love to go because I have never been to Cape Cod and it’s right after my graduation from college and right before I start my new job! It would be a great treat! =)
Tina, I would love to go! I love figawi and this sounds like a great event!!!
Figawi weekend usually coincides with my birthday. It would be great to start the celebration earlier this year for a great cause!
I love sailing, the cape and supporting great causes.
I LOVE figawi and always participate in the nantucket festivities on memorial day weekend!
I’m from the Cape and have sailed for most of my life but have always had to work during the Figawi! I would love to know that I’m going and get it off ahead of time!
I’ll be looking for something to do on the Cape this summer!
Ever since I moved to Boston I have heard all about Figawi. I’d love to attend!
@Caitlin @ This Bride’s Joyride:
Sorry I take my entry back! I have a wedding that night, but hope whoever attends has a great time!
I’m running Reach The Beach May 18-19 and would LOVE to celebrate finishing by enjoying a night on the Cape enjoying the Figawi Ball. Plus, I work for a charity, so it’d be nice to be on the other side for a change! š
I live in Boston now but haven’t been to the Cape since I was a kid so I’d LOVE to attend!
So much fun! My husband and I have always wanted to attend Figawi, but have yet to make it to one – 2012 would be a perfect year to attend. š We love the Cape and love a good time for a good cause!
oops – wrong email address the first time…

I’ve been looking for an excuse to make it out to the cape! This event looks like a lot of fun š
Hooray for the Cape! I’d love to enjoy the Figawi Ball!
I would love to win this prize because the Cape in May is amazing and also because it benefits such a wonderful charity! Also, my boyfriend and I have never met a dance floor we didn’t like!
My boyfriend and I returned to Boston this January after volunteering with children for a year in Costa Rica, and we’ve been working out butts off ever since trying to catch up financially and physically (we are training for a 1/2 marathon early next month). Our 5 year anniversary, and I couldn’t think of a better way to spend it than at the Figawi Charity Ball!!
I’m from the South Shore and have heard great things about Figawi but have never been. This sounds like a wonderful and fun event – I would absolutely love to attend!!
I’d like to win so I can have a date night with my hubby!
I have no weddings lined up for this summer, so this would be a perfect replacement! š
I go to the cape every summer but have never been to Figawi……I’d loooooove to go!
Sounds like a fun night! Especially if I get to meet you and Mal!
I’ve always wanted to go to something Figawi! Plus, we finish “Reach the Beach” that day, and I think I’ll need some cocktails!
I am from the Cape and have never been able to attend the Figawi event. I have always wanted to, but being a local I typically spent the Springs and Summer working three jobs. One summer I literally went from a morning catering gig, to working at an ice cream shop and then selling tickets at the theatre 6 days a week, and had a half day off on sundays. Now that my life is less busy,tee hee, (just a working mom with two small kiddos and training for 6 half marathons this year – Boston run to Remember included) I would love the opportunity to have a date out with my hubby and head down. Plus, a joke growing up when we got lost was ALWAYS, “where the fugawi?” tee hee š
I would love to attend this event and sample some of Cape Cod’s finest cuisine!
Looks like an ALL AROUND awesome event!!
I’m a local Bostonian who would LOVE to attend the Figawi!
I would love to go!
Would love to be entered to win tickets to this great Cape event!
So I’ve always wanted to attend the ball and have been much apart of previous figawi events but…..when ever I get close to that rotary I ask myself “Self where the $&@! Are we?” and so it goes on…
I HAD PLANNED OO GOING BUT I SUFFERED A STROKE IN THE MIDDLE OF JANUARY AND AM JUST GETTING BACK INTO GOING OUT IN PUBLIC AND I ENJOY GETTING DRESSED UP…..
