Don't think it's in the cards this year.

It's worth the trip to Kingston to see the 1,000 Islands run. One of the absolute best.

Damn thats ****ty.

I would think that there would be one seeing as Lake Ontario is so big and Toronto is such a fun town to spend a weekend in for people from out of town.

I guess I will just have to race some korean guys in row boats by the island then.

afternoon of boating and a poker run are a bit different as far as setup is concerned I would think.

well like just 3-4 card stops and a nice lunch/dinner after for everybody. i assume its a lot more work then just finding locations and getting people together? but how much more?

maybe bob knows... from what i have read he seems like the driving force behind fmo.

PRA had a poker run on Lake Ontario for a long time.
It became a poor run because of dates and schedules cuz it was always left to late summer.
In late summer LO can have 6-8 ft. waves which it did a couple of years in a row as well as lots of fog. Turn out diminished to small crowd and no small boats participated.

Same thing happening on Georgian Bay.

Since PRA discovered the money in the USA they are down to only 2 runs in Canada.

1000 Islands which as BOB says is great.
Casino Hull High Stakes ( 10k entry fee ).

Toronto used to be Port Credit........Ontario Place......Scarborough Bluffs......Hamilton......... St. Catherines........Port Credit

Was good while it lasted

Enjoy Your 2008 Season Everyone
