Later that evening meet at the docks for the welcome reception to see old friends and make some new ones.

We're in....bringing four boats from Cumberland. Is the run based out of Blackjack?

Thanks! Look forward to seeing everyone. The run is based out of Anchor High Marina this year. We have a group rate at the Hyatt Place Hotel in Hendersonville, TN and several have made reservations there. Use the booking code G-MCFR.
