You'll Flip for the Beach: The Bama Bounders Beach Bash

The Bama Bounders Beach Bash is on the schedule on September 5-7, 2014. The event will take place at the Orange Beach Event Center at The Wharf in Orange Beach, Alabama. Fans and families will gather as female gymnasts compete while showing off their strength, coordination, balance and flexibility.

Will you be tumbling down from Tuscaloosa and landing the dismount on the Alabama Gulf Coast? There are special rates that are offered for this event so you can save on luxurious accommodations.

During your downtime, you’ll be able to enjoy all that the area has to offer. We know you’ll flip for the sandy white beaches and emerald waters along the Alabama Gulf Coast. The beaches will be less crowded during that time, so you will have prime seating on the sand.

Are you a seafood fan? Well, you are in luck because there is a fresh selection at many of the local restaurants. This area is known for both golfing and fishing, so bring your clubs and your pole. There are also many family-friendly attractions such as the zoo and mini golf.
