Public transit is possible, however not advised, as the nearest bus stop is 0.4 miles (0.64 km) away, and the route serving the stop has its final run around 9:00PM/2100.
Night time activities
[edit]
Beginning at sunset, we will have a bonfire (this year the bronies will not be joining us). For those planning to stay for the bonfire, we kindly request that you please bring some combustible materials for the evening bonfire. Locally purchased (for example, grocery store chain) firewood is acceptable.
In addition, SeaWorld San Diego will be launching fireworks on the evening of August 16, which will be visible from the site of the event.

- This was wonderful fun! Thank you RCLC for all the prep work you did to make this a delightful event. Your early arrival and selection of the point gifted us all amazing views from one bridge from the ocean, through to the bridge entrance to the SeaWorld fireworks area. Looking forward to next year (when we bring warmer jackets to wear against the cool ocean breezes, and a pup-tent sign to give directions to the main tent, lol!) I now treasure my Wiki-button gift, too! You're the Wiki-MAN, RCLC!!

I plan to be there. I am a strong supporter of Wikipedia, but I hadn't heard about these meetups before. Looking forward to it. Alastair McLeod.
