We booked rooms a few weeks ago after your thread saying the demo race would be on saturday the 20th and a poker run on sunday . Last years race was awesome , much better than we expected , you did a great job with it last year thought for sure it would be bigger and better this year . So what happend to the race ?

Otis,

Is that a set in stone date for the run.I can't believe you would schedule such a big event not knowing I already had plans for that weekend.Just kidding,but I really do have a baptism for my cousin coming in from Spain that Sun.Maybe I could do the run and leave early on Sat. Do you have any times set yet?Let me know if you need a hand with any thing.

PS. I may need to rent a boat from Waters Edge if mine is not back together by then.Do they have any of those 16' bow riders with a 300bx on the back?


Thanks Nordic95

Insurance Prices killed the demo race. $6000k for the event, and I would not have anything to do with the event w/o it.

We are working on sponsorship for next year to cover the expense

The Poker Run will be a good one though !!

The insurance costs to cover the event killed it for this year.

The Poker Run will be a good one. So keep your reservations and come join us on the run
