Guy's we do have the brunch this Sunday at noon . If you have forms for me please bring them. Remember the discount is up July 1. The fee will go up to $200.00 per boat and driver so get them in at the $125.00.

Is this a Poker Runs of America run ??? I thought this was a local club event. Don't get greedy with late fees that only makes people on the fence less likely to come at all..... After all, with the current state of our economy be glad people will come to a poker run. Just my 2 cents take it as you may, not trying to cause a argument.

Completely understand your point of view on the matter. It is not a late fee it is a early reg. discount. I guess it is what ever you look at it being. As you know it takes alot to put on a event like this on . Where it is ours event or someone else it is nice that people reg. early to help out with shirts, parking, food , prize's and other items that need head counts. So please understand our point of view as the planners of these type of events. As you said not starting a pissing match just getting both sides out there. Any feed back and suggestions are always good. Thanks.... Are you coming ?

Its about 1/3 the cost of a PRA event. And if its too cheap you might not like the squirrels that show up. I think the price is fair. Although I do suggest that due to the helicopter taking pics, there should be a swim suit model for every boat. Or a stripper, Im not hard to please. All in the interest of good pics of course.

Well knowing this event, and that we are trying to raise money for a charity what is fair ? I thought $125.00 is fair guy's had months to get in at that price and 30 boats did, why do people wait until the last minute to sign up and stress out the one's who put alt of time and effort to put events like this on. I think alt of guys forget that many of these runs are put on by local clubs that want to try to do good for a charity and get people together for a good time. We volunteer our time and gas running around to get things done. And not ask for anything in return. I know that there are many other events that are out there that are not PRA that are well over $200.00. I guess we can argue about this day long. My answer for all events ours and any other you go to reg. early and don't worry about the late fees. Problem solved. Thats my 2 cents !!!!!!!!!
