The plan is to head north to St Edward State Park Beach, where we'll stop briefly to use the facilities, before returning to Concrete Beach.   If there is a strong southerly wind, we may elect to head south first, so we can return with the wind at our backs.  

After the activity we'll have the opportunity to stop for a refreshment at the Magnuson Cafe & Brewery. 

Meet on the astroturf opposite Sail Sandpoint, in the north parking area.  Arrive so you are ready to launch by 3 pm.
