Raleigh/Durham - Falls Lake Gathering (July 22nd 2017) Aug 25 2018

[AndyD]

Come one, Come ALL! We had a great turnout last year with our Raleigh Durham peeps and are planning another get together on Falls Lake Saturday July 22nd. Last year we had 12 boats; this year it would be awesome if we could double that! I know we have a ton of users in the vicinity of Falls Lake that would love to hang out with the best group of boaters you could hope for! We'll commandeer the same cove as last year. I know it's close to the Bimini trip for those of you that are going but a freshwater dip will do your boats good after being in all that salt water; plus, we'll want to hear all the awesome stories you guys may want to share

A few of the people who made it last year: @bronze_10 @Julian @robert843 @justason @veedubtek @Rideitout @Shannon @jeremy0011 @btbowden @Eric Ballard feel free to tag anybody else.

The red dot on the map is where the cove is, the yellow dot are bathrooms, and the Hwy 50 ramp is the closest free ramp to the cove we will be at. Feel free to reach out with questions. See you all then!

[Rideitout]

Our calendar looks open right now so count us in.

 

[Smitty]

Count me in!

 

[bronze_10]

Wow.. only looks like three or 4 right now..

 

[AndyD]

We'll be there as well. Who else? Let's start getting a headcount. It's only three weeks out!

 

[bronze_10]

me me me!!!

 

[AndyD]

Wow.. only looks like three or 4 right now..

I'll start a running list at the top of the page with "guarantees" and "maybes"

I know a lot of people are following the Bimini thread but for us that can't attend what I'm sure will be an AWESOME trip, we'll just make our own fun right here in Raleigh

 

[veedubtek]

Yup. I'm in.

 

[robert843]

@veedubtek is this were your lake house is? Trying to figure out if I got a free place to stay if I try to make it lol.

 

[veedubtek]

Nope. But only 1.5 hours away, and you know you're more than welcome.

 

[bronze_10]

I say we all go to @veedubtek lake house and crash it... we just won't tell him when! All 7 k members!

 

[robert843]

@AndyD you can go ahead and mark me down for this I will do my best to make it.

 

[Julian]

My attendance is looking less likley..... :-(

My wife is manager of our swim team, and the year end party is that day at 2pm. I was planning on putting the boat in, and pulling it out the same day as I need the boat on the trailer to go to Shelbyville the following weekend (having just gotten back from Bimini)....I may not have time to do this....

Time will tell....

 

[robert843]

@Julian I feel you Shelbyville is still my wild card as well I'm trying to figure out if I can make it up there. A 14 hour drive each way for me for a 3 day trip still has me on edge as to whether its worth it or not.

Shelbyville is a blast.....

 

[jeremy0011]

Put me down as possible. My wife is scheduled to work that day but it looks like she might get out of it.

 

[Mainah]

Would love to make this as it is close to my brother and I would like to check out Falls Lake but we are already booked in stone for something else that day.

I have Family and friends spread out from the FL Keys to VA so don't be afraid to tag me for anything South East related.
