The very, very latest on the Osborne ramp..

"I apologize if this is a duplicate message, but I wanted you to know that
the Osborne Landing ramp will re-open on Saturday. There is a fishing
tournament (about 45 boats registered) that is using Osborne as their base,
but they anticipate being out on the river by 6:30 a.m., so you shouldn't
run into any congestion at the ramp. Henrico County has graciously agreed
to keep the gate to the grass are adjacent to the parking lot open for any
overflow parking. Additionally, the Henrico police know that there will be
trucks and trailers staying overnight in the parking area. The fishermen
involved in this tournament know about our poker run and know to be on the
lookout for us between 9:30-10:30 a.m. In addition, there is a larger bass
fishing tournament taking place on the James River closer to Williamsburg,
that involves about 125 boats so be especially careful when going through
that area."

...and remember that Hopewell and Jordan Point are also open, so we'll have plenty of ramp space available.

I've hired live entertainment for Friday night after the Captain's meeting, so stick around afterwards. And we're giving away $2500 at the Captain's Meetings (you must be present to win!), so it's worth sitting through my lecture.

Brian, you're adding two hands to your boat when you get here, right?

For those of you "jumping" rides at the last minute, there will be a table set up for collecting your crew/hand fee. It's $125 for one crew member (gets you lunch, banquet, and a t-shirt), or $300 per hand (covers two people - gets two lunchs, two banquets, two t-shirts, Poker Run video, and eligibilty for all prizes)

BTW - I borrowed a generator this evening if anyone needs to plug in a fan or something. Bring your own extension cord - it a loud sob so I'll keep it on the shore somewhere.
