Pacific Airshow concerns

Shame on you, News Enterprise, for writing a front page story about the Air Show but failing to mention that they are fencing the ENTIRE beach from north of the pier to Beach Blvd and charging $25 per person to sit on the beach.

This is not like in previous years where they had a small fenced area for grandstands, tents, cabanas, etc.  This fence is along the bike path for the entirety of the beach.  No more taking your beach chair and umbrella and walking out on the sand to watch the show for free.

You are doing a dis-service by touting the show without warning people of the hugely increased cost to attend this year.  Think of the families showing up with their towels and umbrellas, expecting a day at the beach to watch the show, like in previous years.

Here is the map of the ticketed sections:

It also says to buy early online to avoid higher prices at the gate!  But I can’t find what that price might be.

Shame on you.
