We did the Miami Boat Show Run, Boyne Thunder and finish the year at our home lake with the Cumberland Run. I've done the boat show run several times and It's always a great run. Boyne is the highlight of our summer and this will be our fourth year in a row. I'm not sure what's going to happen at Cumberland this year. State Dock is our dock during the summer so we will be there regardless but I hope they continue the run.

The mist in pic#3 is Niagra Falls.

Great run, will be there 2014 plus going to try real hard to do Key West. And I had no idea that that we were that close to the falls. lol

Norfolk run info will be listed at www.mapacharity.org

Right now the info is from last year. Our first meeting is next month and info will slowly start to get on the site. The dates are likely to be the last weekend in June.
Those of you who have not yet attended - you really need to check us out it WILL be at the top of your MUST DO list.

Mike, I've been working with some of the folks from Lake Cumberland on promo matls for next year's event, so I would GUESS it's a go.
My other GUESS is that if the run was cancelled, there would have been an OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT long ago.

So, if anyone has heard anything other than idle speculation on the intertoobz, please post it.

Managed to make it to a couple dozen events this year- approx 150 total over the last seven consecutive years.

Jay of the smaller runs, and by smaller I am referring to boat count, that you cover, which ones would consider to be diamonds in the rough?

Only did Support Our Troop PR at LOTO and Boyne Thunder this year....gotta say Boyne is probably the best one I've ever done, with Tickfaw and the old Chicago Poker Run neck and neck for second.

2014 I will be AT Desert Storm (first time to Havi and Vegas) with my thumb out and a sign that says "Have Gas Money"
Also planning on hitting Emerald Coast and possibly the Shootout Fun Run.
