I thought it was Anzac day - Give Marvin from In the Loop kiteboarding a call - he's running it.

No BS. Get it together, there is more than just ridding to worry about to make a good event. There were a lot of people scratching there heads after last year.

there will be several types of accommodation options:

Riders ( included in registration fee) and officials (free) will have the choice of staying at the Alva Beac lifesaving surf club, we will have around 100 beds in there, several toilets, showers and a big kitchen.
We also got permission to camp right around the life saving club.

Moreover, the alva beach caravan park got several options of accommodation ( only 500m away from beach) and last but not least we will have some nice holiday houses for all schools and shops to check out first so they can accommodate their riders and people first choice.

Will send out info letters and details soon, keep an eye out on Seabreeze in the next weeks, all relevant info regarding accommodation and transport from Townsville to alva will be up here.

cheers

Hi crew,

Jordan from Chasing Phoenix here... a few people put our name in the hat for the Music Festival. We're MASSIVELY keen to get onboard... can anyone touch base with me regarding this? We are very keen to get on the bill and possibly play a side show as well. Good, solid rock outfit.

Check us out at www.chasingphoenix.com.au or myspace.com/chasingphoenixmusic if you wanna hear us before coming back to me.

If you're in Adelaide, we're playing at the Seaford Tavern this weekend (28th August) at 8pm. Free entry.

Props to the KCA for putting our name forward too!!

Cheers,
Jordan
