Postby sbkiter » Wed Apr 10, 2013 9:04 am

It's Spring time and that means it's time to head up to beautiful Big Sur for our bi-annual camping/flying trip. There will be a potluck on Saturday night. We also are planning a raffle on Saturday night with some great prizes. So get your camping gear dusted off, flying gear ready and come on up for the weekend!!!

We've got two big group camping spots, so bring everyone! Big Sur is appropriate for all levels of pilots and partiers.

Hello pilots,

Big Sur Spring Flying trip is fast approaching (It's next weekend, April 26th - 28th) so get out that camping gear and get ready to fly on one of the most beautiful coastlines around.

We will be doing a potluck on Saturday night so plan to prepare a little extra if you wish to participate.

We have two group campsites at the Plaskett Creek campgrounds. More details here.
http://www.recreation.gov/campgroundDet ... rkId=70161

While there is plenty of room for camping and socializing around the firepit....the parking is limited so please get your friends together or contact other pilots and try to carpool. There's an incentive for this as well, we will be charging per car for the camping so the more you can carpool the cheaper it will be to camp. It will be the same as last year, $25 per car for 2 nights or $15 per car for one night. So for example, a car with 4 people for 2 nights is only $6.25 per person.

Please bring extra firewood for the nightly campfire. Lot's of firewood is always a good thing! Firewood, Firewood, Firewood!

We plan to have a raffle on Saturday night. We have a lot of great prizes donated already for the raffle. Here's some of what you can win if you come to Big Sur!

Several SBSA Club t-shirts,
Several Bottles of good wine,
$100 gift certificate toward FlyAboveAll Paragliding,
Tandem flight courtesy of Eagle Paragliding,
Hang Glider tandem flight or 1 day training lesson at the training hill courtesy of Fly Away Hang Gliding,
Fly Tech Speed Sleeves,
Hang Gliding mentor-ship with an advanced pilot,
Camping fees paid,
Bracelets,
8-10lbs of yellow tail fish,
and we are adding more prizes daily so expect there to be much much more for the raffle!!!

Raffle tickets will be $5 each and will be sold on Friday and Saturday in Big Sur. This is a fundraiser for the club so don't be shy about buying as many tickets as you want. All proceeds go directly to SBSA.

So no excuses, come on up, fly, hike, socialize, party with your fellow pilots.

Flying in costume on Saturday is encouraged for those who are so inclined to dress up.

See you all next week!

Cheers,
-Jon Blake

So bummed I won't be able to make it.... My brother is having a baby at Cottage on Friday and to leave for the weekend would be a bad move on my part. Enjoy the beautiful weather up there this weekend! Sky out!!!! 8)

SBSA Big Sur Spring Trip weekend is here!!
Get ready to camp, fly and have a fun filled weekend. Forecast for the weekend looks fantastic. We also have a full moon weekend!
Plan your Potluck dishes for Saturday night to be ready at 7pm. Raffle will be held around the campfire at 8pm Saturday night so make sure you are there for it. We have approximately $1000 worth of prizes to give away!
Remember to bring some extra cash for camping fees (per vehicle, so carpool to make it cheap), rides in the vans up to launch and also for the raffle tickets. The prize list for the raffle is amazing so don't miss out. Raffle tickets will be sold on Friday and Saturday.
Please bring firewood.
See you in Big Sur!
