High Tide Planning Tournaments for May 2021
With new regulations in place, the college party tournament series hopes to restart this spring after getting cut short last March.
The long-standing spring break college party tournament High Tide was forced to abruptly cancel half of its 2020 events when the COVID-19 pandemic gripped the United States in March of last year. 10 months later, the tournament’s organizers are preparing for a possible return in 2021.
“We are going to push things out and try to do High Tide in May this year, kind of moving from spring break to summer break,” said High Tide founder Ed Pulkinen, who has been operating the tournament for 25 years. Although COVID-19 cases and deaths are at all-time highs in both South Carolina and the US, Pulkinen is hoping that, as the vaccination rollout continues, conditions will improve enough by late spring that the tournament could operate with precautions in place.
