I have no idea. I'm in Texas attending rallies right now.

I'm sure the resort will have things cleaned up for us in another year.

Hey Mr. Hiawassee,
No. I planned as early as last year; there are 3 events during the month of October 2018 that I wanted to attend in TX. Two of them being Javelina and Pineknot.

The third, and most "huge" event is mid-month for full-timers, NomadFest. I've been fully scheduled to be in TX for the month of October this year.

The OBX rally is scheduled for 2019.

Unexpected timing with Hurricane Flo worked out to be a good scheduled bug-out for me! Gotta love a house on wheels.

Hope to see you soon on the Eastern End. As soon as I get back to NC and assess my work load, I'll evaluate my schedule for work and play. Hope to make it back out again to the GA mountains for your great event.

Cheers,
Jeannine

Seriously doubt that it will hang around for a year.

Thanks Mike,
You're one of the few who are sharp enough to catch the YEAR of the event in the title and original message. Hope to have you out there in 2019.

Only for the Salty Adventurers

2019 is shaping to be the best educational event yet. Set in one of the most dynamic geologic locations on Earth, this strip of ever-shifting sandy land will make you appreciate the planet we occupy.

Carry your trailer wheels to a place that we can experience an ever-changing environment and the salty souls who inhabit it. To top off the video posted on the rally's site: Ribbon of Sand - North Carolina's Outer Banks, we also encourage you to watch the YouTube video
which presents the new Bonner Bridge; a vital part to safe navigation for NC.
The Oregon Inlet remains one of the most dangerous passages for any vessel anywhere on the East Coast and unless you’re bringing your camper via ferry system, you’ll be travelling over the new Bonner Bridge.

We Dare You - Dorian

I write this to y’all as Dorian dumps a bucket of water on us and sends puffs our way…
It’s not our first hurricane Rodeo. In fact, this year we’ve taken on the rally theme, “We Dare You”.

Camp Hatteras is located in Dare County, NC. Named after Virginia Dare, the first English child born in a New World overseas.

The Outer Banks folks are pros and everyone needs to take "recovery" lessons from them. Your concerns are recognized, however, I have the confidence in our camp to pull it off. Only if another hurricane is imminent on our rally weekend (like Matthew), Camp Hatteras will make it happen.

I'm currently returning from the SD rally, Inyan, sitting in a McDonalds parking lot for the night (and thank you McD for free, super strong wi-fi) just 100 miles out of Wilmington, NC. The wind gives just a gentle rocking in the trailer, and I know where I'm going for a fast breakfast and coffee in the morning. So far, all roads are passable.

The best part about all this pelting rain is the plethora of dead insects and birds stuck to my car and trailer from the long road trip, which are naturally getting pressure-washed away. Makes the destination wash down SO much easier!

I know that our OBX camp will be ready for us as they have multiple years in the past. That's why we're the salty adventurers who Dare…

So join us salty, sandy adventurers. “We Dare You!”

New Added Program!

After your morning coffee, stick around Sunday at 8:30am for Beachcombing Biology: the stories your beach finds tell, featuring all types of beachcombing treasures such as shells, egg cases, UFOs (unidentified found objects), bones, etc.
There will be interactive board games to play on (Beach Bingo and Shell Bingo) – matching the item with its correct common name.

This program is presented by Terri Kirby-Hathaway, Marine Educational Specialist with NC Sea Grant, and contributing author of North Carolina’s Amazing Coast.

In addition, she has some door prizes for correct answers to her trivia questions.

Terri will have copies for her book for purchase, North Carolina’s Amazing Coast: Natural Wonders from Alligators to Zoeas, and she’ll be happy to autograph any of those that are purchased.

We'll send registered participants an updated schedule Oct. 1st. (We're currently working on another rally treat for you...)

One More Day to Register!

That’s right, Eggshells 2019 is the most educational EVER and we’re super excited.

We Dare You to take on the challenges.

The stickers are in (and look great), the learning stations are ready and we just finished building the “prop” art.
The food truck is waiting, fish are hungry for the bait, saltwater wants you to splash it, we have a free campsite winner and pirates are ready to party!

Registered participants are getting the last planned email this evening, filled with links including an updated Rally Schedule, campground news, an OBX Trivia Map, the Anchor Grill food truck menu (that is currently open to special requests) and the official OBX Bucket List of great things to do.

If you haven’t registered yet, do so in the next 24 hours so we’ll have enough clam chowder for y’all to taste! To sign up, go to: http://www.rvcompass.com/OBXrally/reserve.html
