Nov 26 - 3rd annual Turkey Fry!

[ReefGuy]

Well then, the calendar needs to be changed. Go to the signup page, and the location is at the public beach.

Just saw it in the sign up for the event - there is another problem in that it puts us closer to the jetties. If anything I would suggest down south of the pier just past the dog park. There are facilities and the reefline is excellent down there along with fossiling and the toothing.

Ok guys, it's getting a little late for changing plans.. Somebody call Ann and fill her in....we need to make a decision quick. Would hate for groups of folks to show up all along the beach wondering where everybody else is...personally, Alhambra is fine.

 

[Walter]

What change? It's always been Alhambra.

 

[Scuba_Jenny]

you are so funny Walter, it's almost cute.

 

[CBulla]

What change? It's always been Alhambra.

Ditto that - If I hadn't seen it in the calendar after I looked at it a 2nd time, I would have not seen the Public beach bit.

Not to mention no Rum, er ah alcohol...sheesh! :11:

 

[HowardE]

And you wondered why we weren't going.

 

[aabond]

I was thinking about going, but I'm so sure about it now.

It seems that there is some confusion over where to meet. Is there a ScubaBoard Banner available to mark the spot? Perhaps a giant dive flag? Some other unique identifier? That way everyone can find the group.

I asked this question before, but perhaps it got lost somewhere. Does anyone know about the Crow's Nest Marina? Perhaps I should tie up there rather than anchoring off the beach.
