It definitely was a shot in the arm last night to see everyone, talk about our boats and make plans for this year's Velocity Fest.

WHEN:
There was a rapid concensus by the 13 people attending to hold Velocity Fest on the weekend of June 28 - 29th. This June date was picked so as not to be directly adjacent to the Lake Norman run (like last year) as we should have a number of PA, DE, MD owners heading there in 2008.

WHERE:
There was an overwhelming desire to repeat the 2006 Velocity Fest Chesapeake course from North East, MD to Rock Hall to Annapolis to Kent Narrows for the overnight and then returning the next day. So that's what we're going to do. As I recall this was about a 130 mile round trip course and a good portion of it is in open water. There are great sights to be seen on the way and everyone enjoyed staying over in Kent Narrows. Take a look at the pictures from the Velocity Fest 2006 thread if you weren't there.

So save the date on your calendars and we'll start making all the arrangements. Please be patient as this takes some time to get everything locked and loaded. Look for complete details no latter then May 1st.

Lastly, for everyone that may have wanted to hold Velocity Fest somewhere else - I encourage you to take the initiative, like the folks in the Chesapeake and NC areas, and organize/establish your own Velocity event. If you're successful with the Velocity Owners in your area, the word will get out and people will then consider travelling to your event. One thing I've learned the hard way, is that you first need a dedicated core of local owners because the majority of owners won't trailer very far if at all.

Again, I appreciate everyone's input last night and support for this long-standing Velocity tradition.

I'm not that far from you bro.
We'll be getting together at some point this summer I'm sure.
I organize a boyz only trip to Block every year so I'll be posting as soon as we nail down a date...

As for the BIG Velocity gathering, it's a bit to far for me.
Have fun and be safe everyone...
