All UM and EC Challengers
On Thursday, March 5th from 6-7:30pm, there will be a social at Seven C Music, owned by our GuitarMan Seven Cs, in St. Pete. A light snack will be provided and beverages are available for purchase at 7C Coffee. The address is 535 22nd Street S in St. Pete. Feel free to bring your maps.
Please let me know if you are able to join us. Thanks.
Challengers in Classes 4 and 5
If you intend to use one of the two beach carts provided by veteran Challengers to transport your boat from the parking lot to the beach, please let me (PaddleDancer) know so I may let them know. Also, please include in your response a brief description of your boat.
Regarding Parking: if you are using the carts, you will see using the link below: “Those in Classes 4 or 5 arriving with trailers or intending to use the boat carts provided to move your vessel from the parking lot to the beach, please enter the parking lot at the second entrance and park in the northern lot closest to the Park road.” This process worked very well last year and we anticipate the same this year.
We are looking forward to seeing all of you very soon!
