Just received this update:
Hello Paddlers, We are making steady progress putting together the 22 mile challenge on October 20. We have had several inquiries from SUPers wishing to participate. Because of this we will be making sure that we have someone available at the 11 mile turnaround point to shuttle paddlers who wish to do just the 11 mile leg. This is due to the fact that if the wind comes up too much, the SUPers may not be able to paddle the upwind leg. We may not be able to get you back right away but there will be water and shade to rest up until then. There is a shuttle flight scheduled for the 23rd, so we recommend that those who plan to make hotel reservations do so as soon as possible. We have contacted the Luna Sea motel in Cocoa Beach. They have offered a rate of $59/night which includes breakfast at Roberto’s Little Havana Restuarant or Sunshine Diner. Rooms are limited, so if you want to stay there call soon. There is plenty to do in Cocoa Village if you wish to bring your family. There are numerous restaurants and stores. There is an arts & crafts fair in Cocoa Village that weekend. There are also several drinking establishments for that after race beer. We would like to point out this event is a function of the East Coast Surfing Hall of Fame Museum. We hope to make this an annual event to complement our other fund raising paddle events, the 7 mile Florida State Paddleboard Championships and 3 mile Waterman's Challenge. Mr. Cubano’s Restaurant will be catering. They are providing black beans and white rice, roast pork, picadillo, tostones/maduros, cuban bread and a couple of cases of Havana Cola. Those participating in the challenge can eat for free, family members can eat for a $5 donation to the museum. In order to have enough food, please provide the total number of participants and family members you will have. We need to have these numbers no later than Friday, October 12. IMPORTANT: Please send all correspondence concerning this event to: eastcoastpaddleboard@yahoo.com This will be a great event, thanks, John Hughes/Kim Kelly http://www.lunaseacocoabeach.com/ http://www.cocoavillage.com/
