Heard that the Event Site will be closed for the Gorge Games for several days. True? forrest Since 21 Jun 2005 4330 Posts Hood River Hick CGKA Member Thu Jul 10, 08 7:59 pm     The Gorge games is paying pretty penny to rent it from the Port. jack Since 12 Mar 2006 214 Posts Stoked Thu Jul 10, 08 8:19 pm     should be interesting to see how many windsurfers call the port and sheriffs office complaining about how unfair life is... maybe during next year's gorge games they can get the spit as a fair trade off while we enjoy a day and half at the event site during the fourth of july.... forrest Since 21 Jun 2005 4330 Posts Hood River Hick CGKA Member Thu Jul 10, 08 8:27 pm     As far as I know, Windsurfing is allowed from the sandbar always except when it's rented out. They can launch from the new beach with ease though. Kiters are truly crippled in that sense. eric Since 13 Jan 2006 1861 Posts XTreme Poster Thu Jul 10, 08 9:12 pm     My point being that I paid for an Event Site Parking pass. Will I be allowed to park, and if not, for how many days?

Actually the laugh is on you... anyone who's windsurfed at the Event Site for more than a season knows that its, ummm an "event site" and as such has "events" that result in it being closed to the public... like the kiting demo they've had for the past number of years... we saw that, and just said "cool, ok, lets go somewhere else..." and we didnt' even have to call the Port! jack Since 12 Mar 2006 214 Posts Stoked Fri Jul 11, 08 6:16 am     dont laugh on me... it hurts Bettyboarder Since 18 Mar 2005 1823 Posts PDX/ White Salmon XTreme Poster Fri Jul 11, 08 6:30 am     Eric your pass will work at the Spit during the GG but I doubt it will work at the Event Site since they are having events happen there. The spit will still be open to kiters during the GG. bamboo Since 24 Jun 2005 165 Posts da 'chung; taiwan Stoked Fri Jul 11, 08 8:03 am     i thought windsurfing was canceled as it was... eric Since 13 Jan 2006 1861 Posts XTreme Poster Fri Jul 11, 08 8:10 am     Nice if GGames could leave an open path on the east side simply to walk out to the sand bar.        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
