I have not spent any less on any major event I have gone to over the years and traveled at least one day there and one day back. I can only hope that we have the boat ready in time to secure a spot in the event. Not having to travel is worth it to me and I hope it becomes an annual event.
After Labor Day the traffic seems to really drop off. I have always said the est boat on Norman is before Memorial day and after Laor Day. What time of day did the CBPA run the boats in the middle of summer?
You have to be alert, smart and use good judgement any time on the water and I feel that this time of the year will be much better for reduced traffic. PRA set the standards for safety long before the Smoke on the Water accident.

Most out side traffic on Lake Norman does die down after Labor Day,But keep in mind that this is when alot of the Lake Norman residents come out on the Lake due to the reduction of traffic from people not living on the lake. there will still be a great number of jet skis and tubers that live on the lake out around that time including me so please be aware, They are a lot of us has to deal with the fall out long after the poker run is over. I enjoy being able to run my boat at full throttle when the conditions allow and like to keep that right. So be safe and have a good run.
Thanks
