Wildwood is in the running.

The AKA convention board has announced the possible locations for the 2011 AKA convention. And so far the best one I feel is Wildwood. The others are Roanoke VA. An inland location with higher than most costs, and the other is Outer Banks. A great place to fly but limited convention space.
It would be cool if any members here that are also AKA members would send a message to there local AKA directors about the location of your choice.
My choice is clear in this message. But make your minds up and let them know.
Thanks, Dave aka rocfighter

Better kite boarding on the Outer Banks. Plus kiting at the Wright Memorial :singing:. Buggy where the Wight Brother flew. :wee:

You'd think they'd learn to skip the inland locations...but WW and OBX are both great.

Jealous here Chris! Going to try to make it down there next year!

Roc Good luck with your attempt to get it in WW

Outer banks would be cool, but was there a couple of east coasts ago.

actuality we got shutdown bugging & ATB'ing at the Wright Memorial at the kite fest the other week. I got a few runs in Saturday but those were "demonstrations"



my vote is wildwood

Well it is official, They have chosen Wildwood for the 2011 AKA convention. Dates to be announced. Sounds like buggying at the convention this year.
