S.M.A.R.T. ADVANCED TRAINING/CAMPING EVENT WEEKEND
- Thread starter Douglasjre
- Start date
I may be able to put this event on Jan 24-26, with Sat Jan 25 training by the Osceola County Sheriff's office. This is one week after the BMW Coldest Rally, and the weather in Kissimmee is usually 70F in the daytime at this time of year.
Is this a blackout date for anyone? How many of you'all are interested if this is FREE except for the camping?

The date works for me, as far as I know
Not to be a wise ass Doug, but according to the requirements we need a valid FLORIDA license with mc rating... is this just for florida residents or can us georgia boys and girls play with y'all. I'm really hoping u meant valid operators license with motorcycle endorsement...

This is available to all states of issue for mcy licenses. We are working on a date that will be exclusive for our club and will allow 5 skill levels of organization. Our novice guys through experts can all have more individualized training. At the end of the day we may do a competition for our club.
We are considering the last weekend of Feb or March. Anybody with blackout dates?
Thanks Doug. I dont think your gonna be able to satisfy everyone regarding 'dates'. Your probably just gonna have to just set it, and those of us who can make it will....
Do we have updates on the dates.....? Doug?

I didn't see it and went from jan to June
Would love to, but proximity of dates to Jennings event may make it impossible for me to do both.

I'm glad to hear you are excited about this course! We are working out final details for our site as we speak. Marty is going to personally examine our intended campsite. We are told it's the nicest and sells out pronto because it's so low price and beautiful.
Holidays were quite busy so we will get this up soon. Intended weekend is March 6/7/8. Does that work for you guys?

Ok, let me get this straight as to the dates for this event. It was going to be on February 6,7 but is now set for April 4th? If April 4th is the true date, then I won't be able to attend this year. My daughter is getting married on 4-4-20 and I really can't miss that. Priorities you know.... See you at another event sometime this year.
Hmmmm..... where did u get april 4th.... Doug says march 6,7,8....but it hasn't been set in stone yet....
The holenwald event is april 3rd.....on the calender...

Our major hold up for this event is finding a 'tent friendly' campground that doesn't
'strictly prohibit' alcohol, has enough space, and is cost effective.
Campgrounds in Central Florida are for the most part RV parks (snowbird friendly).
Campgrounds that have group tent sites available are County or State owned, and
are VERY restrictive about well, just about everything.
Doug and I visited Moss Park a little while back, and aside from 1 mile ride on
packed gravel to get to the site, has the room available for (2) family sites, but
we're waiting until reservations can be made to secure those camp sites.
"Alcohol strictly prohibited" at this park, so it would have to be Shirley Temples
around the fire at night.
I'm still hunting for better camping. We're trying.... just not much out there close to the event.
Stay tuned....
Tic toc... feb 7th.... how goes the planning and date setting...are we good for those march dates or....?????
Well, its obvious march is out..... >
