If any of the SBI teams would like to come up to Michigan a few weeks early and race Harrison Twp, we would store your boats and rigs so you can just fly in and out.

The Harrison Race is on July 24-26th, St Clair Aug 1-2 (just 10 miles up the road) and then Michigan City Aug 7-9.

Good idea.
Here in Michigan City we're just a hop skip and jump down I-94 from the Detroit area. The more the merrier. Guys running in St. Clair and Harrison should think about coming down and racing here since it's SO CLOSE.

Anyone interested in serving as a committee boat just let me know and I'll get you a registration form. We need boats!

I'm gonna be bringing some of our sponsors for our race to Ft. Lauderdale this weekend for the race. Any hints on what's cool to do in the evenings? And if anyone's gonna be down there and wants to chat about the Lake Michigan race, call me at 219.380.9016.

I'm sure you will get some good suggestions for night life in Ft. Lauderdale......you will have a great time.
I sent you a PM, and looking forward to meeting you.

Three weeks til the race up here and we're getting really excited.
We've got a great entertainment lineup with block parties on Friday and Saturday nights at the race site ... Chuck Wells and Stone Cold Blues from Louisville playing on Friday night and Midwest Hype, from Chicago, playing on Saturday night. Two awesome bands that will knock your socks off.
VIP parties Friday and Saturday night and a VIP tented brunch on the beach Sunday during the race.
Great dry pit area for spectators to walk around in and a whole mess of great local restaurants serving as our food vendors.
Anyone interested in VIP packages let me know. Otherwise, we'll see you all in three weeks.
Make sure to come to the LaPorte County CVB booth near the food court and say hi. I'd love to meet you guys.
Thanks,
Jason

Down to a week to go!

Is there going to be a desigated spot on the wall somewhere where visiting boats can raft off and view the pits Etc on Saturday?

Mark

There will be the ability to raft off in the channel, yes. I can post info on that tomorrow.

Last minute plans to come up Saturday night. What's a good affordable hotel near the race site? I saw the casino but not much else, any suggestions? I'll be driving from Sandusky after a day on the water, 8 or 9 p.m. arrival.
