Every year, we put on a big party in August. everal people from here have attended by invite in the past. This year we are opening it up. Here is the posting from another site.

OK,, Official start date for this trainwreck is August 14th. It will run through the morning of the 18th.

The Castle Rock cut should be open so we are looking at holding this one up in Padre Bay (location for the first one). Mileage wise, it's actually closer to this beach than the previous 2 years plus it opens up alot more lake to play on.

Dinners will consist of Potluck on Thursday night, Tittie's and Beer's shrimp boil on Friday night, and the Luau Pig on Saturday night.

We will be heading uplake to set up camp on Thursday Morning. Thurs. will pretty much just be a relax day.

Friday we will do some short trips to show off the lake to the newbies (probably Face Canyon and Rock Creek). We will get the pit prepped for Mr. Piggo on Friday.

Early Saturday morning, we fire up the pit then its off on the Poker Run.

Back to camp around 4 pm on Saturday, Do the Poker Hands... then eat Pig!!

Sunday morning,, nurse the hangover from Saturday night, pull up camp, and head in.



T-shirt design is in the works right now.

This is one hell of a good party so don't miss it.

After Dark party rated NC-17. Some partial frontal nudity. No refunds or rainchecks. Discount offer not valid in all states. Some assembly may be required.
YOU KNOW WE WILL BE THERE... Loved the last 2 and cant wait for this one.
Missed it past years. (1st year too shy, 2nd year too pregant. :P) Would LOVE to come this year. :)
we are inked... see ya there!!!
If work allows I would like to attend.
We will start the plans now to make it this year. Lori is very excited
Do you need to own a boat to come? What other information might be helpful to know?
Got a camper no Boat :(
He WeDo,, I didn't think you came on here anymore... Glad to see you.

You'll have to excuse the lack of info on this. It's a copy and paste from a boating website that we also frequent.

In answer to your question Hym,, lack of a boat isn't a deal breaker on going on this trip, but it sure helps to have one. Camp is approximately 20 miles uplake. If you don't have one, there are rental boats and pwc's availible or it's always possible to catch a ride with someone. Once you get to the beach, there is usually room in someones boat to run around in and it's a great way to meet people.

I do know that there will be a few people that will be running up from the marina every day with the exception of the Party Saturday night. They plan on tent camping it that night.

I haven't heard back from my houseboat rental contact yet but hopefully I'll see him out on the lake this weekend.

Last year, we had a couple of 75 ft houseboats with cuzzis out there. Cost per couple was around $450.00 plus an even split on the gas if I remember correctly. This was for Thursday through Sunday.

If anyone has any specific questions, please feel free to email me here...

thanks
We would love to come.
Just sold our boat last weekend :(
Well Hell DnJ... Why did you go and do that?? Guess it's time to buy another one ;)
We would love to go.
:z
We are getting closer... wooohooo!
(Mar here)
OK,, so this is all that are interested?

We will be setting up a meet and greet in salt lake for those that want to go,, kind of let everyone get a "feel" for each other. That way it's easier for someone to back out then if they have issues instead of when you are commited to a houseboat and are 30 miles uplake..
now were talkin where and when? Keep us posted!!
PARTY.. we still savour the food from last year... cant wait for the party after dark.. we are so there again. Just reserve us our room.
OK,, I got some preliminary houseboat information today. From one source, it's looking like the prices are going to be a couple of hundred more for the weekend due to the price of fuel being substantially higher. Another issue is the lack of availibilty of Hottub equipped houseboats. We might have to find different ways to "get aquainted"

I will know more by the weekend after I talk to the other place (same place we got them from last year). The manager there isn't in till Friday.
OK, I have the pricing for the houseboats that are availible for Powellfest. This year we have pricing packages from both marinas. If anyone is interested, email me and I'll give you the pricing information and contact info as well.

Unfortunately, the pricing is a bit higher this year, but then again, so is everything else

The deals I've worked out are a substantial savings over what the general public can get. There are also 3 of the houseboats availible with Hottubs!!!!!!!!

CYNANDHIM
HYM4CYN
Great Idea CynandHim...

We are going to be up in Salt Lake at the end of this coming week. Perhaps an informal get together could be arranged? Say perhaps a night at Habits???
Hi Guys,

We are interested in going to Powell, so when you setup the meet and greet let us know.

Thanks
T&J:h
We would so LOVE to go to this! Just don't know how or if it is at all possible. We will see what we can do. Please send us the info on the off chance we can finagle something. Sounds like so much fun!!!! I haven't been to Powell in years!!
AZwetandwild,,,

Looking forward to doing it again this year.

We are heading to Salt Lake tomorrow morning. Thinking of hitting Habits on Saturday night with CynandHim so anyone that wants to discuss the trip face to face has the opportunity.

4 more weeks and its party time!!!

Hi,

If anyone is interested in carpooling down to Lake Powell, Send us e-mail.

T&J
;) :h
We are still planning on going. We will try to be at Habits Sat. night the 19th of July.
we are still looking into going.. who is interested in join us and jeannes boy toy LOL ( my buddy )on his houseboat at bullfrog and heading down river to the party?..
we want to figure out who wants to go with us.. have room for upto 10 couples.. maybe more if couples have ther own boat and just need a place to sleep.. if weather is good we plan on sleeping on the upper deck. We will be driving our excursion can take two other couples with ther gear and can pull a boat if needed, and to help save on gas. my buddy is driving his truck pulling the monster seen in the photo.. cost wise thinking that as little as 100 bucks per couple for boat fuel, its a 60 to 70 mile trip down to the party . guess depends on if we get 10 couples or not .. we are looking to have one hell of time...
90 mph with our tops OFF and our hair on FIRE....!!!!!

e mail us or yahoo utah_sassy_moose ( YAHOO )
We still have room in our Yukon for anyone wanting to carpool down. Contact us if you want to join us or have questions.

Cyn and Him
We have room for 10 couples for powell fest .......... who wants to go with us? need RSVP by july 29th..
so far it looks like were a go sassymoos but still looking into it. fingers crossed!!!
So how many people are going on this "trainwreck" ???
HOW MANY ARE GOING? Good Question.. This party is almost a tradition for many who will be there. It was started many years ago by a group of hot boaters. This is the first year they have opened it up to the general public and from what MARDONZI has told us, the number is in the hundreds. If you like Lake Powell, want to have alot of fun with a great group of adults.. this is the time to be there. BTW FYI, there are T-Shirts being designed and printed especially for this event. There will be mens T's and ladies tops. If you are interested in reserving one or two, you might want to let Mardonzi know as they have all been purchased before they even got to the Lake in years past. They are great to help identify whos with the group too when you are doing poker runs or going to the docks or make a good cover up in the sun.

Cyn and Kev
I'm still putting the list together,,, trying to get answers from people as to how many are coming in thier respective groups (Last year, we didn't really put it out there on the swinger sites and had about 120 people. This year we have quite a few more, especially from this site as well as LL and SLS).
We will be there! Talked to MARDONZI, CYNANDHIM and SASSYMOOSE, sounds like something we DON'T want to pass up.
Ok, I just got off the phone with Mardonzi and we are all finalized and planning on going!!!

We would like to rent a couple of waverunners for the weekend. They are about 330.00 a piece per day. Is anyone interested in going in on them with us?

Email me directly... thanks!
Can't wait to get naked and party on with everyone!
Kym (and Tim)
got a good list of people going on the atH2o ( jason ) BOAT

hotty n naughty..wefly..grouptherpy...1sxywifexxx ... hotforsex622 ..
cinner.. firsttime1.. sex101....Jazz-rich.. and hammer and fq

You know it would be alot of fun to hook jason up with some girls that would show him a good time.. there is nothing like crupting the vanillas.... anyone have a girlfriend that wants to go???
Anyone going to Page to catch a boat for the party who would like to car pool, we have room, just let us know so we can work ouit schedules. From everything we have heard, it sounds like it will be the party of the year.

Cyn and Him
AWESOME! This should be a blast, looking forward to seeing all the sexy (and naked) people there amongst the beauty of the red rocks and blue water.
Sounds like a good time! Lake Powell is perfect this year - no crowds due to high gas prices and the water level is the highest its been in years! The escalante river arm is especially beautiful this year.

God, I love Lake Powell. I'd love to go but I'm sure you guys don't want a single male!


:D

Anyway, you Ladies have fun flashing all the guys as you travel down the Lake!
:h
All single men don't bother me. In fact I know two who I would love to bring along. They would entertain all the ladies. I know they do me when I get to see them...individually. Had to say that, as it started to sound a bit weird...lol Kisses all, can't wait to see you down there!!!! Jazz
We found out today we can't get the time off work... so unfortunately we won't be there :( Hopefully next time!!
For those who are jumping on board,, I just wanted to throw out a bit of info to help everyone out.

First off,,

There will be some people here who are vanilla types. These guys have been to the party for the previous couple of years and are well aware of the activities that go on. We make it a point to seperate the beach.. lifestylers on one side and vanillas on the other. The vanillas know that if they come across the beach after dark, they are going to get an eyefull (that usually doesn't stop them.. in fact a few have come over to the "dark side" after this party.

The main rule of thumb is consideration. Same as any other party.. No means no. If you think about breaking this rule, just remember that it's a LONG swim back to the marinas.

Another thing, the 2nd year we started this, we decided to incorporate a poker run, a raffle, and a luau dinner and a into the mix with all proceeds, after food expenses, going to one of the local charities. With this out there, it has allowed the marinas as well as other manufacturers, boat dealers, and others to donate not only the discounted houseboat rates that we got, but some killer prizes. Poker hands will be done on Saturday and a raffle will be held on friday. Poker hands are 10.00 a hand and the raffle tickets are one for $5.00, and three for $10.00. As an example, some of the prizes being raffled or given away are $200.00 gas cards for the marinas, ski vests, etc...

One of our participants is a Party Gals dealer and has put together a basket worth about $350.00. We will be having sort of an off the wall pagent for MS.POWELLFEST. with the winner getting this. We are still putting togther the events for this but anticipate is to be similar to some of the bike rally contests that some of you might have seen (hotdog deepthroat, etc...)

In the past, we have had T shirts made up for this party. They are pretty nice this year. CynandHim's son has done all the work and they are way cool. We have done Logo'd T's for the guys and are doing some string style tanks for the ladies. Cost on these are $15.00 a piece if you would like one, let either us or Cynandhim know so we can get a count.


We will be doing a Taco and Enchilada dinner on Friday night and the Luau Pig (done in the ground polynesian style) on Saturday. We are asking for a non required donation for this will all proceeds above the cost of the food to go towards the charity (I can't list the charity until we are out on the water, but it's well worth it). With us doing this, the only thing people really need to bring is dinner for however many nights above and beyond the 2 nights you are there as well as all your breakfast and dinner stuff. In the past, we have all pretty much thrown everything together and done it pot luck style for the breakfasts. It's easier to cook all this up in a couple of houseboats than to have 20 couples all trying to do thier own thing.

If anyone has any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sexed,, i hope this answers your questions as well,, let me know if you have any more

Don (and Mary)

I need to throw this out there...

NOONE is obligated to purchase a t shirt, participate in the poker run, raffle, or dinners. This is just something we do to help support these charities and also warrant the donations that we receive for prizes for the poker run and for the discounted houseboats that we get for this party. At NO TIME is a profit made on this trip for any of the people putting it on.
You guys make it sound so good that we can't help but wanting to go! The only problem is that we have family coming to our house and we can only get away for Thursday, Friday and part of Saturday.

Our question: are there boats going back and forth from the party to Bullfrog or Page? Or, once we are there do we have to wait until everyone comes back? We are just wondering. If this is possible, we are sooooo there... Tan and all...!
Gio and Lia,

With that being said, I would suggest going to Wahweap (Page) and hooking up with Sassymoose's houseboat once it gets there. It's a 75 mile run downlake from Bullfrog to where we are going to be camped and about a 22 mile run from Bullfrog. With that being said, I'm sure that finding a ride back to the marina on Saturday to drive home would be easier from there than Bullfrog.
I'm so excited to go!!! Plus we found out some friends of ours are going too! So this is great! We will have old friends and I'm sure we will meet some new ones! ;) Can't wait to get on and in the water naked! Kisses, Jazz
thinking of getting together with who ever would like to meet on saturday at habits..
i know its loud and crazy .. but so am i. if details need to be talked about we can always go outside.. just thought it would be nice to have a face to face with people ..

If people that are planning on going on the AT H2o house boat you can yahoo us utah_sassy_moose or call 801-390-4940
Dammit! I wish I could clone myself! I want to be on both boats! The one coming from Bullfrog and the one going out from Page... both sound so fun!

Kym and Tim
You know I just got two new bikinis! Not sure how long they will last on me...They might match the floor of the boat! ;) Or who knows, just might not even take them out of the bag!!!! lol Kisses all, Jazz
this is going to be a blast!!! Hope to meet as many of you as we can on Saterday!
C&F
We are soooooooooo jealous :( maybe next year. Everyone be safe and have lots and lots of fun.
Kisses
Lori n Matt
we would love to go
Did someone say they were going to wear a swimsuit? My understanding was this is supposed to be a non tan line affair. By the way MARDONZI... tell us a little more about the MS. POWELLFEST CONTEST.... you have our interest perked.

(BTW... T shirts and ladies tops are on sale... requests are being taken by MARDONZI or CYNANDHIM ).
It is getting closer!! wooohoo
:( we were sadened to hear today that the houseboat we were planning on going on for Powellfest which was coming out of bullfrog, has performance issues, and won't be cuming at all ..LOL.. :( and there doesn't seem to be any viagra or inducement that will help with this.

So at this point it does not look like we will be able to cum - opps come :( . Hope it is a blast and look forward to hearing all about the fun from whoever goes when you get back.
We are still up and running for this trip!!!... The party is still a go.. 2 weeks from right now I plan on being planted in a beach chair, nekkid woman on my lap, and a frosty cold one in my hand!!!!!!
From what I hear from GT we are not going now either. No house boat. BUMMER. So let us know how it goes and we will catch you all next year!!! Kisses all, Jazz
Sorry you wont be joining us Jazz... We are NOT going to miss this year no matter what. You are stuck with us MARDONZI.. get used to it.. LOL
Well, we are fast approching the kick off date for the party and its looking like it's going to be a blast. We have gotten about 2500.00 worth of prizes so far for the raffle and the poker run and the goodies keep coming in.

Some of the prizes so far are a 2 day Powerboat rental from a local marina, a Gas card for the local marinas, Boating goodies from local and national suppliers and much more.

All proceeds from the raffle and the pokerrun are going to 2 local charities.
T-Shirts and ladies tops are coming out GREAT Mardonzi. With the guest list we have seen so far.. THIS WILL BE THE PARTY OF 2008.

Dang.. cant wait.
Cyn,, I have to agree with you...

For those that are checking this forum out, this party is open to pretty much anyone. The only thing that requires any real preplanning is for those that want to rent a space on a houseboat or don't have a boat and need to get "adopted".
just a ttt to get it back to the top
wow.. and Mary here

Sad to see that these people who were wanting to join the party are backing out because 1 (one) houseboat isnt making it????

Holy hell people.. we have many houseboats making it to this party!..


Sorry to see you miss out on an amazing party!!
POWELLFEST MENU

OK,, here is the menu as I see it...

Everyone will be responsible for supplying their own breakfasts and lunches. For the breakfasts, we we will be doing what we do every year. We will cook it if someone gives it to us. I am going to suggest the following;

Every couple bring the following for breakfasts;

2 lbs of bacon
2 lbs of sausage
1 loaf of bread
1 18 pack of eggs or egg beaters
1 frozen package of hash browns
1 melon or cantelope
1 lb of cheese


This be enough for breakfast for all 4 days.

Lunch- everyone is on thier own for the 4 days. We plan on hitting the beach sometime around noon on Thursday, August 14th.

Thurs Dinner- Pot Luck. I figure to fire up the grills, and do whatever. We will be supplying Brats, Cole Slaw, Chips, and fixins. I would suggest keeping it simple.
Burgers, steaks, chicken, etc... will work.

Dinners for Friday and Saturday will be done by the Powellfest group. We would like to see adonations to the cause fo 10-12 bucks per person per meal (hence 40-50 bucks per couple for the 2 nights). Any money above and beyond the actual food costs will go into the charity fund.

Dinner Friday night will be;

Chicken enchiladas
Beef Tacos w/ flour and corn tortillas
Spanish Rice
Refried Beans
Guacamole
Cheese
Lettuce
Sour Cream
Homeade Salsa

Dinner for Saturday night will be;

Luau Pork- 2 Marinades---- Teriakyi with Pineapple and a Carne Asada Glaze for the 2nd one
Corn on the Cob
Baked Beans
Potato Salad
Cole Slaw
Green Salad
Dinner Rolls
Anything else we decide to throw into the Mix

If anyone has questions, please feel free to contact me

Counting down,,,

ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!!
There is still room on other houseboats going!.. our friends ONLY MONEY.. have rooms
I can post what the cost will be etc if anyone is interested!...

and Yes.. taking a trip to Powell for a big party does end up costing some money!
but it is more than worth it!

muah
mary
We are all in! Since we got such a great invite from MARDONZI (thank you) (and I think that if we cancelled at this time we might not see our boat again Ha-Ha) :) . This sounds like a really great time and the two of us are really looking forward to it. If there is any one from the SG area that needs a ride-let us know.
C & R
For you "Techno-Junkies" that have GPS's, the coordinates for the party are 37 degrees, 04 minutes, 55.32 seconds North and 111 degrees, 19 minutes, 34.92 seconds West....

See ya there!
Just a few more days for the festivities (ship wreck)! :D We are looking forward to meeting alot of new great couples. The menu sounds great. Let us know if there is anything else that we can bring---or DO for you guys.
C & R
Weather report is looking good so far, gas prices are falling, everything seems to be shaping to be indicate one great Powell Party.... Counting the hours....
What is "sunblock?" :-)
Got it!!! I am taking a very nice, sexy and tanned sunblocker with me... LOL

See you in a couple of days sexy people!
We are so there!!!! :)
we are packing the Yukon,, heading out about noonish tomorrow, (Weds). Still have room if anyone needs a ride down. Otherwise.. see all of you on the water.
Can't wait for tomorrow!:D We will be in Page later in the evening. Mardonzi, don't forget that it wil be C's birthday! As soon as R can get out of the office, we will be rolling that way. We are looking forward to a great time. Hope that you all have a safe trip heading down.
C & R
OK,, finally rolled into Page after a fun drive... wooohooo. I have been asked to provide directions for the late arrivals.

For those coming in from the North:

Stay on US 89. After you come into Arizona, approximately 5-6 miles in, you will see a sign that says Wahweap Marina. Turn left there and go through the pay station (preferably paying as to avoid the ticket... lol) After you go through the pay station, drive forward till you come to the first left hand turn. Take this turn and drive until you come to the stop sign (there will be a campground on your right as you are coming down the hill). At the stop sign, you will take a left. Drive about 100 yards and take the first right. You will start down a gravel road and see a houseboat dock right in front of you. This is called "T" Dock and it is where we will load.
If anyone has any questions, I'll be availible pretty much all day tomorrow.

Look forward to seeing everyone there.
Thanks everyone who attended this event. It was a riot! We raised a couple of Thousand dollars for the local food bank and had the opportunity to meet a great bunch of people.

Every year prior to this trip I start to vacilate on whether or not to do it again the following year but always seem to convince myself to do it again. This year there is no Question, It will happen next year. The people from Swingular who attended were by far the best group to attend in 4 years.
lol.. wefly.
I am still recouping.. holy cow!.. or was that two holy pigs that got inhaled!...lol

What a great time and I am working on the Vender Thank you letters for the super super raffle/poker run goodies they supplied for us!

With all the canned goods left over.. and some of the packaged stuff not opened.
I was able to give the food bank the canned goods (they get the donation either tomorrow or Monday after I finish the Thank you letter) and the soup kitchen got the frozen corn and the good lettuce etc..

I have memories of someone in my really bright green thong.. strutting his stuff out on the beach with his pirate scarf on.. :o

and many many more.. it was sooo great to meet all the new peeps and trying to moleste both the new and the vetrans.. lol

smooches!
Mary
MARDONZI,
Many many great memories... Thanks for all your effort. You guys did a spectacular job.
Please remember us next year on the invitation list. (BTW, arent there still a few T shirts left over for anyone who would still like one? )

XOXOXOXO to some great people.. and some new friends
