Mid-Atlantic Early Broncos will be having an Outer Banks (OBX) Lighthouse tour, cruise, beach pic-nic, meet and greet, etc., trip on September 7 and 8, 2007 - this is the weekend after Labor Day and is "off-season". We will be staying at the Cape Wood Campground in Buxton, NC which is less than 2 miles south of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. It will be a family oriented event with activities planned for Friday and Saturday. Friday morning will be free to fish, walk the beaches or explore as you wish.
The tentative agenda is as follows -
Friday August 7 - Meet at the Ocracoke Ferry and Musuem parking lot at Noon. Depart at 12:30 for ferry ride and Ocracoke Island - about a 40 minute ride. Drive on the beach where allowed. Pack a meal for a pic nic - we'll stop somewhere on the beach and eat. We'll visit the Ocracoke Visitor Center, Lighthouse and the Blackbeard Museum. Return to campground around 6:00 p.m. Dinner is on your own.
Saturday August 8 - Meet at the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse at 9:00 a.m. and tour Lighthouse. Depart about 10:00 a.m.and drive north to Bodie Island Lighthouse and Visitor Center. Tour Lighthouse and depart about Noon for Kill Devil Hill and the Wright Brothers Memorial. We'll stop for lunch at a restaurant along the way, then tour the Wright Brothers Memorial and Museum. Return to campground around 6:00 p.m.
