Quincy, WA. sod farm


We have access to the sod farm on the 11th of Oct. It's a 200 acre sod farm with no trees or anything that will hinder the wind, except for the house in the middle of the property.
Weather and wind look good, but that is subject to change.
As a way to say thank you to the owners and help him in his kite/buggy expenses a $5.00 charge is asked for each vehicle to park.

Anyone interested can email me for the info at Jeff@bigkidkites.com

The weather and the wind look favorable for the day. I take an extra buggy and extra kites so the owner can join in the fun.

I'm planning on coming. I'm new to this side of the sport, but can't wait to check it out, learn some things, meet some people, etc.
Oh, and it's 3hr trip for me too!
Long day for certain, but worth it for an end of summer bash!

I'm not sure about Saturday, as I set it up for Sunday. There are places to camp that are kinda close by. Lots of motels and such in Quincy, Moses Lake, George, and surrounding area.

Location: 6 miles outside of Quincy WA. Halfway between Wenatchee & Moses Lake just off Highway 28.

From I-90 eastbound go to exit 151 at stop Sign, turn right towards Ephrata/ Grand Coulee on Hwy 283, go 4 miles turn left on Adams Rd, go 4 miles & turn right on Rd 8 NW, go 1/2 mile, turn right on L.5 NW, go 1/4 mile to first driveway on left.

From I-90 westbound take exit 154, Adams Rd at stop sign, turn left, go 7 miles to Rd 8 NW turn right go 1/2 mile, turn right on L.5 NW, go 1/4 mile, to first driveway on left.

From Hwy 28, 3 miles east of Quincy, turn south on Adams RD. Go 2 miles to Rd 8 NW, turn left go 1/2 mile, turn right on L.5 NW, go 1/4 mile, to first driveway on left.

So how was it? Does he support winter flying. Does the area get any snow that sticks. Seems like it should between December and January.

Lots of wind or a little wind, it's always good. I asked about the snow issue and Kent said they get lots of snow and then it's gone or a little snow and it sticks around for a long time. It is a hit or miss type of situation. He said to call before hand and see whats up.
I will keep in touch with him and see if we can set up another time to go.
