The idea did come up for Portsmouth Island, but the club talked about trying to do an event that would eventually become our signature, TLCA sanctioned event, and the remoteness (cost of ferry) might put some off.
Also, with the closings of certain beach accesses, we thought bringing in some extra revenue to the towns of the Outer Banks might be beneficial for both groups. Since the following weekend will start the piping plover nesting beach closures.
I'm also in the works for doing an environmental (sustainability) presentation about the balance of ORV use and natural resource management practices. That I'm trying to line with an official in the Division of Coastal Management, who just happens to drive a 60!
Keep an eye here and on the ONSC site.
