newtokiting - 31-5-2010 at 02:13 PM

does anyone know what dates this will be held? we are thinking of going and we need to reserve a condo fairly quickly,so any guidance would be much appreciated--thanks in advance,a fellow kiter.......

Oct. some time, depends on tides and weather . So it is a little early yet to set a date.

Not sure on the exact date yet, but usually in the second week of October. or so If you are going to stay at the Apollo you should be o.k. A lot of the guys stay there, should be enough room. I am sure they will announce the dates soon. Keep an eye out. The chatter will pick up before you know it. See you in October!

Man Weldngod, I was typing in the same time brother! Hope you are having some winds your way, been pretty lull here. Going to give it a shot tomorrow in between the rain drops!

We're working on getting a date up soon but yes more than likely it will be close to the middle of the month. Also.. look for a new section coming soon to the Official Events Forums on PKF!


Oh, and North West offshore rocks! Bring a gust muncher. :saint:

Newtokiting You will definitely have a good time! Good group to hang with when the flying is done as well!

Wildwood Buggy Bash 2010 Fall

kiteplace - 31-5-2010 at 10:47 PM

All I can say now is it will be Oct. 8, 9, and 10 (new moon low tides) or Oct. 22, 23,and 24 (full moon low tides).
The first weekend there is a Soccer Tournament in Wildwood which means the Apollo may be full and their rates are $20.00 per night more than we paid in May.
The second weekend has nothing big happening in Wildwood but the Apollo is closing Oct. 11th.
I’ll be in Wildwood next week for a couple days and will talk with the Apollo about staying open till Oct. 24.
I will also check out some other motels as an alternative.
If anyone has any suggestions please reply.
Pleasant Breezes,
Don

Hey Don, In my humble oppion the second weekend would be good because then we can come!! :D
But if not I am sure you guys will have a great time. I know we truely enjoyed being at the spring event. I'm glad we got to meet every one and look forward to seeing every one again as soon as possible.

Any official word or updates on the event dates?

ragden - 8-6-2010 at 07:55 AM

If the Apollo cannot stay open, talk to the folks at the Days Inn of Wildwood. The last time I stayed there, we talked with the manager about the Wildwood buggy bash, and they were willing to cut us a deal in the interest of bringing more folks to the inn. They stay open all year round, so that wont be an issue. The rooms are decent, but not right on the beach. They are located right next to the convention center. Its a very short walk to the beach from there (cross a street and you are there). Not nearly as conveinent as the Apollo, but it is an option...

The other place we might be able to check out would be the Aqua Beach Resort. Rooms are REALLY nice. Walking distance to the Fishing Pier (2 blocks). Price is a bit higher, but most of their condos have enough rooms that you can double, triple, or even get four couples comfortably into a condo (which knocks the price down into a much more reasonable range). You'll need to talk with the owner about it though, as I'm not sure if they will still be open...

Jovver - 8-6-2010 at 08:23 AM

I'm not really worried about the location, as I have a condo that is available, I just need to know the date so I can reserve it for that week asap.

ragden - 8-6-2010 at 09:33 AM

If we are discussing which weekend would be better, I would lean towards the later one. Better chance of fewer people on the beach... Though, if its a nice weekend, there will be people there regardless...

rocfighter - 14-6-2010 at 05:02 AM

Don is there any new news about the dates? We are hoping to make it back down as we had a great time and want to do it again.
The Apollo was fine in the spring but no buggy eating spiders in our room. We looked!! But what ever is open would be fine. A place to sleep!!

rocfighter - 14-6-2010 at 11:58 AM

I just saw the NJBB page. Way to cool check it out.

You planning on coming to the bash Willard?

WIllardTheGrey - 14-6-2010 at 02:41 PM

Too far for me I'm afraid, but I like looking at all the get-togethers and wishing I was there.

Still trying to convince the wife that SOBB is close enough to go to.:dunno:
