Mark your calendars!
DATE: Sunday, August 23rd, 2014.
Come one, come all. It's time for the SoCalXJ Fiesta Island BBQ Picnic Potluck Swapmeet Show'n'shine Hootenanny Cavalcade!
This is the 13th year in a row we drive our XJs to the beach during the summer time for some good food, and water play (Jet ski's, boats, kayaks, sandcastles, fire pits, etc). Bring some food for yourself, and some to share (if you like). We can use some tables if you have them.
Feel free to drive your daily drivers, RVs, tow rigs, TJs, whatever, if that's all you have, driving/owning an XJ is not required, it's just encouraged. No, this is not an official
SoCal Chapter event, it's been a SoCalXJ event since day one, but think about it folks, this event has been going on longer then the SoCal Chapter has existed. This is an official unofficial SoCalXJ Yahoo group event. You don't have to be a member of SoCalXJ.com
ahoo Group or of to attend.
TIME: Morning until whenever, just show up any time!
Typically, most people arrive mid-day, but people will generally be there sunrise to just before sunset.
Official beach hours are 6am-10pm. Island access does close, with NO CAMPING. Carol Horsley (white XJ) and Charles Stein (medium blue XJ) have generously agreed AGAIN to get there at 6am to "hold" a stretch of bayfront sand... so you can't get there "too early"...

We'll be on the flat stretch along the west side of the Island (once on Fiesta Island, take the "shortcut across the island" left at the fork in the road, and when you can see the bay again, you should be seeing an assortment of XJs and such ahead of you on the sand.
From I-5, take the Sea World Drive exit and head southwest, then make a right onto East Mission Bay Drive, then left to Fiesta Island. There is parking throughout the island.
OFFICIAL FIESTA ISLAND RULES:
NO alcohol OR glass containers.
