Just a Quick FYI for everyone that is coming to the Ball. We need to get all participants to join the events they are going to be in.  So if your racing, join, rodeo, join etc....

This will greatly help us organize the actual day of events and divide up prizes too!!

Also for those that are curious, we did manage to score some great gear again this year from some really generous sponsors. Please help support these businesses as they have continued to support our community. The donations and help is great, and we all appreciate it, but the fact is that our local businesses need our help to. Thanks for making this another great year!

We have started a little later than other years preparing for the ball with announcements so lets get to it. If your going to participate in an event make sure you join the trip/event.

We have alot of great prizes this year but we need to split them up so everyone gets something good and that means we need feedback and advance notice.

ITS GONNA BE OFF THE HOOK!!!!

We are upon the weekend of the Ball. Anyone have questions that I can answer?

So far we have
- 4 people signed up for the Freestyle Event
- 3 people signed up for the Down River Race
- 1 person signed up for operation applets and cotlets


Its great to see everyone jumping into registration and getting active!!! From the looks of it I might need to cancel the kegs this year, unless everyone is just going to watch?

Greetings! I think I've joined the event on this web site... I'm new on here.

I would like to sign up for the down river race, and if the hole is working good maybe the freestyle, but I'm on a riverboard, so it would be more of a demonstration entry, if that's alright with you guys.

Rochelle,

Definitely join up for the rodeo. I say that the freestyle event would be great to have a board in!!! An added flavor were missing.

The race course will be posted later today, were going to have a qualifier and then the full race on Sat as posted.

Thanks to all who helped put together this fine event. It was my first time, and it was a total BLAST! The Aplets and Cotlets mission was one of the funnest times I've had on the river ever.
