York Beach meetup and Skee-Ball Tourney: Time to plan! →[More:]So the idea has been floated a few times to do a bunny/MeFi beach meetup in the awesome shoreside town of York Beach, Maine.
I'd like to get the planning started. The original idea was just to meet in the morning and have a beach day of swimming, sunning, maxing and relaxing on the beach, at some point breaking for the Skee Ball Tourney, followed probably by food and beverages at one of the nearby establishments.
Some questions: would you like to come? If so, when? Picking a weekend day definitely makes it possible for a few more people to attend. On the other hand, weekends are thronged and parking is a challenge. If a weekend is the best pick, I guess we should look at Saturday, since people might need travel time on both ends. My first pick, I think, would be
Saturday, July 26.
There is excellent potential for this to be a bit of a Bunnystock, if that's desired. There are any number of motels and nifty retro tourist cabins right in York. There is also ample primitive sleeping space at my or LT's apartments -- futon, air mattress, couch, and floor. I'm thinking that an optional overnight component would be a fine idea. After the festivities in York, any die-hards could come back and hang out here, with breakfast at the
Friendly Toast and other localrific activities.
Any additions, suggestions, modifications to this basic plan? Anyone interested? 'll use this thread to make the final plan before posting it as a done deal on MeFi and here.
