Subfest 2024 - redux!

[RCSubGuy]

Yes, SUBFEST is re-scheduled and looking more epic than ever!

Mark your calendars for Wednesday, April 30th through May 4th, 2025.


Most of you know that due to Hurricane Helene, I made the difficult choice to cancel SUBFEST last week. In hindsight, it was absolutely the correct decision, as I heard from the venue owner that while the Red Clay Resort weathered things well, the surrounding area was decimated.

Having talked with her, and after consulting a number of registered attendees, I have officially moved the dates for SUBFEST 2024 to April 30th to May 4th, 2025. This new event is now branded SUBFEST 2024 - REDUX!

Moving the event to May has many benefits:

• We still get to have our 2024 SUBFEST
• There is little to no chance of inclement weather cancelling the event
• There are no conflicts with other submarine events such as Groton or Carmel
• It is staged at the beginning of the running season, which will allow skippers to get their boats out of hibernation and trimmed for the 2025 running season in the perfect environment with lots of help and input available.

Here is a quick FAQ to get everyone on the same page:

1. All existing registration fees will automatically transfer to the new event
2. Registration for the event will remain open to any newcomers right up to April 30th and registration is available on site.
3. As before, t-shirts will be distributed at the event. I'm working with our supplier to modify them with the new dates and branding. If you ordered a t-shirt separate from event registration, those will ship after the event, just as they would have in September.
4. Interested in making a suggestion for SUBFEST 2024-REDUX? I have just added a form you can fill out on the SUBFEST page. Any ideas or suggestions on what we can do or supply there are gratefully appreciated.
5. The owner is working on finishing a full RV campground just down the street from the event that will have hookups. If you're interested in bringing a trailer, this should be available by the event date. There is also RV parking on site with electrical but no sewer.

I'm really looking forward to the event in May. Be sure to hit me up with any questions.
