wheeeeew are you ready ???????????
That is the question!!
After a great and fun 'Heat of Summer' Poker Run in Sarasota, followed by a weekend of fantastic racing festivities, I'm sure you are in need of a good rest.
Well don't wait too long...because as the summer continues to heat up, so is the annual Long Labor Day Poker Run! Again, Ron Long...the Event Director, Stu Jones, and myself have teamed up to put together a triple play, or hat-trick, of spectacular surprises and promotions for this event. Rest assured that this poker run will pack a serious gathering of boats from all sizes and ranges of speed. Taking an estimated head count, we are just over 40 boats on our preliminary list. Once again for this event, we will reward those that register AND pay early! The same goes for the sponsorships. We will be able to promote more of the sponsorships when we are able to promote them early in the event promotion stages.
Call for the 3 documents with ALL the info on this run! It is never too early to plan for this run, and actually, it is recommended that you start planning now, to ensure a snag-free weekend of fun with all these boaters! Think you can't afford it? Think again! Start stashing away those extra dollars into a savings jar, and have your crew do the same. Before you know it, the event is paid for, and your crew can pitch in for gas too!
