Where are you going to be running? Sounds like a good time. Are you running up the river and if so what do you do about the lock?

The first leg of the Chicago Poker Run will pass by Navy Pier, Columbia Yacht Club, Chicago Yacht Club and into Monroe Harbor where you will see the Buckingham Fountain behind the camera crew set-up on the shoreline. Turn left along a seawall near Lake Shore Drive, you can see Soldier Field, Field Museum, Shed Aquarium and Adlere Planatarium. Then you blast to Hammond Marina.

Well i was gonna sneak out of work tomorrow and go help at the marina but my foreman had a death in the family and is off to St. Louis right now so thats out
I dont think i'll be able to make it down to the marina on Sat morning either, but i want to get down town and see the boats pass by the card stop at Buckingham and take a few (hundred) pics
......are you guys going to be inside the marina, right along the sea-wall infront of the fountain? I dont understand how you will be passing Navy Pier since its north of the fountain and you guys are coming from the south.....

Mark left out the first card stop in his description which is outside of Montrose/Belmont harbors. then we run past Navy pier to Monroe. Yes we will be inside Monroe harbor idling the wall in front of Buckingham Fountain.
Oh and of course, Kathyjo and I will be there.
