Alright guys and gals the time to start planning your visit to the 2015 Southern Fried Freeride is now! Brought to you by your wonderful friends at the Georgia Jet Pirates. Official dates are set and it will be October 9th-11th. Myself and some others are coming in thursday evening which is the 8th, so feel free to come in early. I learned a few things about promoting the event from last year, and should be even better and flow smoother than the year before. It will be held at Allatoona Landing Marine Resort, the same place as last year. This year mention "Southern Fried Freeride" when you reserve your site and if we book ten or more sites the entire group gets 25% off thier reservation bill!
We had a great turnout last year and are expecting another good one this year. No one (as far as i remember) had any run ins with the DNR and we need to keep it that way again. They have been nice to us and we need to continue to follow the basic rules so we can keep this ride going. Also, last year we did a great job of cleaning up after ourselves, do it again! This year the food/feast will be bigger and the beer will be colder, and the night time shananagins promise to be quack-tastic! As we did last year, I will supply the keg of beer to help promote donations (and to act as a party enhancer.) If you drink keg beer, make a small donation and at the end of the event the money raised from beer and a portion of the shirt profit will be donated to a charity in Jesse's name!

(water is low in the pic, usually comes all the way to the trees)https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Allatoona Landing Inc, Allatoona Landing Road Southeast, Cartersville, GA&hl=en&ll=34.109788,-84.70739&spn=0.008048,0.016512&sll=32.678125,-83.178297&sspn=8.373892,16.907959&oq=allatoona landing &t=h&z=17
Trailer Parking:
If you look in the google picture, that big field when you come in on the left is where you will leave empty trailers and overflow parking. No trailers are allowed at the campsites overnight, and no trailers will be allowed in the gated overnight parking as it is for memebers only.They have overnight security everynight as well. I would still reccommend locking trailers if possible just for extra measure.
Ski Launching and loading:
There is a ramp located inside the campground. If you have waterfront, you can put stand ups in via beach cart if you please. Water-level ground all around the campground is all fairly level, some areas rocky, but everywhere will support a beach stand just fine. When we usually camp here we put in at the ramp, drop the trailer in storage, then keep the skis by the sites all weekend either anchored or on stands.
