Also we will have a speaker system that will be placed on the boardwalk from Solomons Pier to Bunkys Boat Rental Building. There will also be a speaker for the other side of Solomons Pier for everyone that will be watching the race on that side. This system will allow for the fans who are watching the race here the play by play action on the race course and of course just enjoy the day even more.

.....PARKING FOR EVENT.......
