Good Afternoon West Coast Owners!!

So looking a few additions/changes at the event this year.

1. Event Logo- We have had a graphic designer work some magic for us and was able to incorporate the Temple Bar Logo and the Tige Logo. Which looks SUPER cool IMO. We will post it as soon as we decide on final colors.
2. Shirts- Doing MENS, WOMENS, KIDS shirts this year and likely Short Sleeve. Only stipulation being the KIDS sizes will not allow for logo's just due to size and limited space. Colors are being worked as we work on the logo.
3. Competitions- Fun "games/competitions/awards" during the event. We will release the entry and rules requirements as we iron out the details but this is all in good fun.
4. General Event Timeline- This is also in the works as we did this last year and think it turned out well and will likely do this again this year.
5. Room Cancellations- PLEASE if you have a room or multiple rooms and need to cancel, PLEASE let myself of DP Powell know so that we can ensure those on the Event Waiting list can grab the room.

As we sneak up on the Summer Season things will likely ramp up fast for the event as seasonal companies start looking to move product. Keep a eye out here as we try to update at least weekly.

I am looking forward to see what the new logo is like as well as the games. Thanks for all of your efforts!!
Are you thinking of the same BBQ guys again?

[Thegerman618]

No we will not be using the same BBQ catering as last year.

Jenn and I purchased an extremely large BBQ made for cooking mass amounts of food. Dave, Germaine, and I are discussing the food. Whether, we look at catering or purchasing a large amount of food and cooking.

We are 100% open to food suggestions.

I voted for Tacos/Mexican Food

This is sounding pretty good. Any chance to get some shirts with long sleeves put into the mix?

Any chance to get some shirts with long sleeves put into the mix?

Sorry Josh. Probably not going to happen this year. We have had long sleeve the last 3 years, so we decided to change it up for this year. That's the bad news... the good news - different logo, men's, women's, children's, sizes, and more size options for the big guys.

If they do a 5x, then you can get a wearable shirt this year dave. They would just need to trim the length since you are 5'5.

What's all that about? If it's supposed to be funny, its not.

I never got your number man! Look forward to seeing you!

Emty your box. I sent you a PM but your box is full.

[Germaine Marine]

I thought it was, sorry you didnt find the humor.......

[TeamAllen]

That's good. Glad to hear it. Thanks for clarifying!
I hope they each understood that. It just came across, to me, so mean spirited. A few smiley faces might have helped.

Back to business. Since Thegerman618 mentioned games, I've been trying to think of some. We used to have a stereo competition in years past.
How many wheat thins can you catch in your mouth, while surfing, within a minute?

[Dandy]

For Games - how about a small basketball backboard attached to the boat (or mounted to a bucket/garbage can) and then the ball(s) get thrown back to the surfer and they try to make baskets? I thought of this from that video of the guy scooping up fish with a net and dunking them into a garbage can. Granted you would have to have someone in chase picking up the balls if they were dropped when thrown back to the surfer.

The good old fashion road trip bingo game, but with the cards made up for things you may see on the water. Example: Boat brands, marina(s), surfer, tuber, ski....

[Thegerman618]

TeamAllen- I am working on a stereo competition, as I work out the rules I have requested CHPTHRIL/Mike Simms to be 1 of the judges for this event.

Evening Cornhole tournament?

Dandy- So its funny you mention this, I am trying to do something exactly this. We get like 50 Tige beach balls from Tige every year, we always fill them up and just dump them in someone's boat as a joke of course. I figure we may be able to put these to good use.

Evening Cornhole tournament?

If you are looking for Cornhole boards, check out this company. We picked up a set from them and they could do custom logos. Maybe one of the sponsors or a new sponsor may want to have a set or 2 made with their branding and have them as a giveaway...maybe to the cornhole winner.
