Greetings to all Boardwalk Reunion Registrants and Procrastinators:
We are looking forward to seeing you at America’s Greatest Family Resort, Ocean City, New Jersey on Saturday, 19 October. It’s going to be a busy day, and if we’re all going to have a great time and make it a safe event, please review the following information. Online Registration is still open but closes 13 October -

Lodging update: Due to some cancellations, the Flanders currently has several 1-bedroom suites available. Call them for more information.
Registration at the OC Airport (2600 Bay Ave, Ocean City, NJ 08226):
Registration opens at 8:30 AM and will close promptly at 10:15 AM at the Municipal Airport. We will close the airport tarmac gate at 10:15 AM to all incoming cars.
Trailer parking is located nearby and those entrants who requested trailer parking will receive a separate email. If your plans have changed and you need trailer parking, you MUST contact the Registrar immediately to ensure a space. Do NOT bring your trailer onto the Airport property or parking lot.
Tours and Groups: If you are coming down as a tour or a group, please pass through the gate together. If you are separated before entering the airport, we will not be able to shuffle the cars in line on the tarmac to make room for ANY late arrivals to your group.
Staging and Registration: Please follow the direction of our volunteers. The speed limit on the airport tarmac is 10 MPH. Line up, park and proceed to the registration tables to get your packets and swag. After you have completed registration, fill out your placard and place on the dash. The placard is your ticket out of the airport and onto the Boards.
We are projecting to have six or seven lines of 40-45 cars each on the airport tarmac parking area. There are no food concessions. The airport has a small diner, but the lines will be long that morning. We recommend having breakfast before you enter the airport or bringing it to go. Port-O-Potties will be available for your convenience.
The driver’s meeting is at 10:30 AM, after which you will move to your cars, and prepare to parade to the Boardwalk under police escort at 11 AM.
On the Boards: Tech Sessions start at 12 noon at the centrally located Music Pier (Four sessions, on the hour – see the website for details). One of the cool items in your Goodie Beach Bag is a Boardwalk Reunion Celebration Flag. We ask that you affix the flag to your window after you are parked.
Cars will remain parked until 4:00 PM by city direction and cannot leave until that time. Please be in your cars and be ready to move at 4PM. All cars will exit off the 5th Street ramp.
Dinner and Social: The cocktail hour at the Flanders will begin at 5:00 PM with dinner following at 6 PM. Dress is casual, come as you are. You must have a wristband to enter the Flanders cocktail hour and party (5-10 PM). Dinner will be followed by dancing and the open bar will be available all evening. No dinner tickets will be sold the day of the event. If you want to add dinner tickets to your registration before the Oct 13th deadline, please email the Registrar.
On-Site Registration: Our policy has been no walk ups. However, for this first year of Boardwalk Reunion, we do not want to disappoint anyone who believes, for whatever reason, that they can register the day of the event. For this first year only, we will accept walk up registrations under the following conditions:
• All Registrations on the day of the event will be $50 per car – CASH ONLY
• If people still want to pre-register, they can do so for $30 per car until midnight on 13 October. The on-line registration will close after 13 October.
• There will a separate table for walk up registrations.
• We cannot guarantee walkups will receive a goodie beach bag. Walk ups will receive goodie bags as long as supplies last. Any extra grille badges and sweatshirts will be sold at the Music Pier that afternoon. First come, first served.
• No tickets will be sold on site for the social at the Flanders on Saturday evening.
Thanks for supporting our inaugural Boardwalk Reunion and thanks to our generous sponsors Porsche Cherry Hill and Hagerty Drivers Club and Insurance. We hope you have a great time and enjoy the day. For any additional information, please consult our website:
