Update #2
Because of the pm's that I have received I feel it's necessary to clarify some details about the get together so that no one is mislead or disappointed. This get together is not a organized function by a club or group. I thought because of the posts that I have read on several of the different boards and in speaking with other md'ers that it would be fun to get together and share information and socialize. i decided to reserve a pavilion because of June's afternoon showers and provide hot dogs for lunch. I am hoping that those that attend will enjoy the camaraderie and perhaps pick up a tip or two.I am taking the responsibility for organizing the get together,but the success will depend on those that attend.Don't forget the theme Md'ers helping Md'ers.
Below is a map to help locate Coquina beach
The main entrance is labeled as Stand #5,which leads to the Patio Cafe concession ,which is the 1/2 way point of Coquina beach,the pavilion area is located at the very south end on the Gulf side by the RV parking area , you may enter at Stand #5 or #6,follow the RV parking signs.
Update #1
Pavilion has been reserved for Saturday June 28th..will post a few pics & directions by the end of next week
