Visitors to a national park attraction at North Carolina’s Outer Banks will be able to visit some attractions free of charge. The National Park Service said it is taking part in a national fee-free weekend on July 18-19 and Aug. 15-16. That means visitors to the Cape Hatteras National Seashore area will be able to visit the Wright Brothers National Memorial. The program doesn’t mean fees will be waived for campgrounds and lighthouse entry.

On Saturday (7/11) and Sunday (7/12) there is a Skimboard contest in Kill Devil Hills, NC. Here are the details taken from the Skim City website:  http://www.skimcity.com/store/home.php?cat=3901 Source: Skim City Ok, flying in? You need to be looking at flying into Norfolk, VA, NOT into Raleigh, NC. Next, while there is a shuttle to and fro the Norfolk airport, renting a car (or copping a ride from one of the local skimmers) is a good idea as the only transportation on the OBX is a cab ($$$).
Mom and dad, the contest will be somewhere in Kill Devil Hills. Where? I won't know until the Friday before the contest. Now, now, it's ok. Remember, it's about having the contest at the best site so the kids have the most fun. Isn't that worth walking (or driving) a couple of extra blocks? Sure it is.
Next, the people at the Sea Ranch Hotel (MP 7ish on the little road) are hooking us up this year. Did you stay at the Sea Ranch last year? It was right down the beach from where the contest was and MIGHT be again this year. Well, if you did you can get 20% off this year. All you have to do is show them a receipt from last years visit. Even if you didn't stay last year, mention you're with the skim contest and receive 10% off. The Sea Ranch can be reached at 888-334-4737.
You're on the OBX with nothing to do - hit up Pet Gallery, across the street from The Pit (the OBX home to Skim City. Oh, and make sure you grab some grub at The Pit. And there's a nightclub there, too. Friday night is teen night if you're into it. |
