FAQs
Question
Will Zeppy be attending?
Answer
No.
Question
Can I bring my kids?
Answer
No.
Question
What is the closest airport?
Answer
Norfolk International (ORF) is your best bet. From there, it’s about a 90-minute drive to OBX.
Question
Is transportation provided?
Answer
Sadly, our yacht is still in the shop. We recommend carpooling, or renting a car.
Question
Will there be parking at the venue?
Answer
Yep, there’s plenty of parking near the pier. Just follow the signs to ensure legal parking.
Question
Where should I stay?
Answer
We’ve got a hotel block at the Hilton Garden Inn in Kitty Hawk — complete with discounts and beach views. Group beach houses are also great, just don’t accidentally book a place two hours away. OBX is long. Like, really long.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Beach formal — which basically means look nice, but don’t suffer. Think sundresses, linen, breezy button-downs, and shoes you won’t lose between the pier boards (block heels). If you show up in a tux, we will hand you a margarita and tell you to relax.
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
Yes. Beer & wine. Hydrate accordingly. Make wise choices. You will be on camera for years to come.
Question
Is there a backup plan for rain?
Answer
Yes. It's called optimism and umbrellas. Bring both. (In all seriousness, inside the pier house is the back up plan).
Question
Did Patrick write these FAQs?
Answer
Yes. :-)
