COSTS FOR AUTOS: 50 cents for 20 min. or only $8 for the whole day up to 24 hours. MOTORCYCLES: 25 cents every 20 min. or $4 for the whole day up to 24 hours. Parking may be the problem depending on what time you plan on arriving for our Frolic in the Fun Zone.
MISC INFO: A few of us are planing on getting there early and hanging out together. There are wooden benches on the Boardwalk so you can bring breakfast with you and linger with the rest of us while we sit and "people watch". there are plenty of little stores and booths for shopping and food. An ATM machine is in the Fun Zone to get access to more money, we never have too much money lol! and there is also a Cold Stone Ice Cream shop...yum!!!! It's going to be a casual and fun Sunday, if you have any questions please email me (HBPatti) , Rita (Rosey604) or Don (mugwumps1948) and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Let us know if you are planning on parasailing and what time group also how many guests you are planning on bringing. If you have any questions please email me and I will get back to you.
WE WILL MEET BY THE THREE BENCHES IN FRONT OF THE HARBOR CRUISESS DOCK AND ALSO LOCATED IN FRONT OF THE FUN ZONE! PARASAIL NEWPORT IS TO THE LEFT OF THE BENCHES AND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FERRY. It's always fun to meet new people and hang out for a few hours! Some of us will be there at 9AM, if you want to come early! HBPatti Following Members are Attending This Party...

| Parasail over Newport & Frolic at the Balboa Fun Zone - Sun. Aug.10th Posted: 7/13/2008 3:09:05 PM | Hi Don, Thanks for helping to co-host this fun frolic, of course you will be taking photos of the fun...Right? Don and Rita, we did have a great time in Newport several weeks ago and want other POGFers to also enjoy the fun and frolic at the Fun Zone in Balboa...OK Don...when is your event to host...Rita, I'm still waiting to hear about your Redondo Beach event!!!! When you parasail...it's from a trampoline at the back of the boat and the wind makes you go higher and higher...you never touch water unless you are so happy from flying 500 feet over Newport that you want to jump over the side of the boat into the water to celebrate...isn't that so Don???? lol!!!!

| Parasail over Newport & Frolic at the Balboa Fun Zone - Sun. Aug.10th Posted: 7/19/2008 11:20:29 PM | Hi yoursminenours, No, there's not a group set for the brunch...it's really for anyone who wants to try it...it's kind of pricey so I don't know if the people parasailing will have the brunch. Knowing a lot of the people who have already signed up for the parasail (most did the skydive June 8th) I think they are planning on parasailing and probably will be in a group hanging out at the fun zone and then go to Newport Saloon. The people already signed up are really AWESOME, friendly and very "real". and we hope to add a lot more friends to the group...I have many new friends from the POF events. We are looking forward to meeting you and your guest. HBPatti, Don and Rita | |

| Parasail over Newport & Frolic at the Balboa Fun Zone - Sun. Aug.10th Posted: 7/20/2008 11:41:53 AM | Thank you Patti for your reply. Good info! Are you already taking reservations for the parasailing rides? What times are available? I know another POFer who is going to sign up to sail also. Please reserve a ride for me. Sounds like a wonderful day~I can't wait! I have attended one POF function and loved it and am signed up for two more already. You are right when you said that there is a nice group of people. I have referred many that I know to this site. I have a friend whos brother was just recently married to someone that he met on this site. Awesome! Have a lovely day! Lori | |

CHANGE #37 1/2 THE BOAT GOES OUT EVERY 2 HOURS......LET'S GET ON THE 10 am BOAT. There is no 11 am boat. The next is at 12 and other folks have that one already
Make your reservations for Parasailing early.
There are 3 so far for the 10 am boat we need 3 more!!!!!!
We can get to know each other and say HI on the boat or after the ride
That way we can get a discount is if there are 6 in our group, on the boat, at one time.

| Parasail over Newport & Frolic at the Balboa Fun Zone - Sun. Aug.10th Posted: 8/10/2008 8:02:53 PM | Hi everyone, I'm sorry I missed this event. :( I had signed up and was ready to go, unfortunately I pulled a muscle on my leg on Saturday, which prevented me from joining you. I called the parasiling place and left a message. I hope they passed the message on. I was looking forward to seeing all of you again. I'll just have to wait for the pictures to be posted and join you at the next event. | |
