The answer to this week's contest is the two grid entries that combine to describe the theme.

Good luck with the grid and the meta

The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

On the shore. The cabana boy is taking his afternoon siesta. Then he has to take a shower and figure out which speedo to wear. We may not see him for awhile.
