Virginia Beach KOA

Yee Ha! Western Weekend is coming up August 3 through 5, so rummage through your closet to rig up a country-western outfit to wear to the festivities. On the patio, we will have line dancing to country music. If you’ve never tried this kind of dancing, it’s actually very easy. The event is a good opportunity to let your hair down and have some down-home fun. As always, the nearby beachfront will have a seemingly endless array of entertainment. Friday night at 8 p.m., the latest in the free summer concert series will be held, featuring a band playing the music of Elton John and Billy Joel. An alternative concert on Friday night is a program honoring the life and music of Ella Fitzgerald, held at the 13 th St. Virginia Legends Walk Stage Our park and nearby community is a place where there is never a dull moment.

If you are a chocoholic – and few people aren’t—you couldn’t pick a better time to stay at Virginia Beach KOA than the weekend of July 27 to 29. This Death by Chocolate event will celebrate the joy and delight of this delectable food through an array of activities that includes competitions and chocolate slip ‘n slide. Another event on the schedule is a Chocolate Potluck Buffet, so cook your favorite dessert and bring it to share with others. Do you have a decadent brownie recipe or a way of making mouth-wateringly smooth, rich fudge? On the other hand, perhaps you know how to put a creative twist on a standard like chocolate cake.  Whatever your specialty is, it will be welcome. In addition, you’re sure to enjoy sampling all the desserts, and you may get ideas and inspiration from the other campers for your chocolate cooking. On the beachfront on July 27, make plans to attend the latest installment of the free concert series. This evening, the Dave Mathews Tribute band will entertain.

The nearby beach will be scene of a unique event on July 21 st that could be likened to a crab beauty contest. Residents of Virginia Beach KOA can attend the Mid-Atlantic Crab Challenge, an event that made the New York Daily News top ten list for wackiest celebrations in the world. You may be thinking something like “If you’ve seen one crab, you’ve seen them all.” Well, not necessarily. The crabs in this contest have creatively decorated displays. Moreover, the winner won’t be just another pretty face. Aside from the most beautiful crab winner, trophies will be awarded to the friendliest, shyest, and biggest, as well as the most traveled and athletic. What a hoot! Back at the campground, July 20 th to 22 nd is designated Carnival Weekend, and will involve face painting, duct tape and gyroscope, along with games, hot dogs and pony rides. Visit our website and reserve your spot today.

Visit The Skinny Dip in town and try frozen yogurt flavors like Key Lime Tart, Island Banana or Carrot Cake. If you’re very hungry, go all out and get the sundae that comes with fresh fruit and pound cake. An interesting attraction to visit in the area is the Nauticus and the Battleship Wisconsin, a maritime science museum.
