This event has MOVED once again!
It will be hosted at Pirate Cove Resort at Park Moabi just south of Needles, CA.
We will be on the beach right across the channel from the Pirate Cove Restaurant. Look for the banners and flags! We'll have our booth set up with our merchandise. We thank the staff at Pirates Cove for accommodating us on such short notice!
The previous plan to have the event at Topock near the 40 Freeway Bridge was shut down by the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service because it was within the Havasu Wildlife Refuge.
UPDATE! 8/11/2020
As the saga of COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc in our day to day lives, I have some good news and bad news about the SoCal Jet Boats "One Hot Summer Weekend" event at the Avi. The Avi Beach, Boat Ramp and Pool remain closed. Due to this, the event in itself is cancelled, BUT... this is what we have to offer.
The group rate for the Avi rooms is still active. We are still planning on staying there, but we (SoCal Jet Boats) will be launching elsewhere and hanging out on a beach just outside the inlet of Topock 66 on Saturday August 29th . We invite everyone to swing by and hang out with us. You are welcome to stop by, hang out for the day or go for a cruise in the beautiful Gorge just south of there.
Here are the details as I know a ton of people will have questions:
-The Pool, Beach and Launch Ramp are closed at the Avi.
-The Boat parking lot on the south side of the Avi is closed. Everyone will have to park out in the main parking lot. All guests need to enter and depart thru the main entrance by Valet. Valet and Bellman services remain closed as well.
-All guests will need to wear masks at all times when they are on Avi property except in their hotel rooms. This includes (but not limited to) the restaurants, Casino Floor, Hotel Lobby, Gift Shop, and Hotel Hallways. Guests are only allowed to lower masks while they are eating (to take a bite), to take a drink (then right back into place), and to take a drag off their cigarette. This is their rules and you will be asked to leave if you don't comply. Please respect the people enforcing it as they are only doing their job as directed. This is not the place to express your opinions on masks. If you disagree with these policies, you are welcome to stay elsewhere.
-All guests are subject to a temperature check each time they enter the building.
-The group rate for the Avi Hotel is GOHSW20. It has been extended until August 16th at midnight. This is available for Thursday Friday and/or Saturday night (August 27th - August 29th; departing on Sunday August 30th). You must call the Avi at 1-800-284-2946 to make your reservations. Group Rate Discounts cannot be granted to reservations made through 3rd party travel sites.
-The Avi Beach Tower is closed as they are operating at a limited capacity. Anyone that made a reservation before August 7th in a Deluxe or a Riverview room will be complimentary upgraded to a Luxury room.
-Avi Casino bars remain closed.
-Avi Casino is open and operational with some limitations. Please inquire with them if you have any questions.
-Any gatherings of 50 people or more on the Avi property (inside or outside) will be asked to disburse.
-Launch Ramps that are open south of the Avi include Jack Smith Park in Needles, Pirates Cove or Topock 66 (limited trailer parking). These places do have launch fees. Please contact them for more information.
-We (Brittney and I) will be hanging out on the beach just outside the inlet that goes into Topock 66. This is on the AZ side just above the 40 freeway bridge. Just look for the SoCal Jet Boats flag. You are welcome to swing by, hang out, or just wave from a distance. We will have some items available for purchase from the pontoon boat. We welcome anyone who wants to come by and make a purchase. We thank you all for your support of our small business and the boating community.
I hope everyone still comes and enjoys this weekend on the river. Yes, it's not the same, but it's better than nothing. Thank you and stay well. We hope to see you all there.
-Brad & Brittney

Do we know when the Avi it reopening or taking reservations for this?
As of yesterday, they just gave the green light for casinos in vagas to open on June 4th. We don't have any inside information just yet as the entire staff has been laid off.....so once those individuals get back into position, we will have some insights as to what their opening date will be. Once we hear anything, we'll be posting it here and on the other outlets.
