10 day extended forecast is out. Sunny and 80 degrees for Friday. No threatening weather system on the horizon that I can find! I will update Sat and Sun forecasts when I get them.
For Friday open water and racing, here's our game plan. First off, Pete and I live 1 hour away from the pond. We're good at early morning "getting our *!***!***!***!** together", but the drivers stand/retrieval boat, tables, chairs and generator are our responsibility and all have to be delivered to the race site. Traffic can be an issue...
So, we're planning on arriving at 8:00, but will need time to get things setup and running. I expect to have the course and drivers stand fully functional by 10:00. Hopefully sooner, but 10:00 may be about right. Give us a bit of time to focus on getting the site prepped, then our attention will shift to whatever you racers need.
You will have access to open water prior to 10:00, but access to the retrieval boat will be limited. The lake has 2 "side" areas where practice running can take place without interfering with the main course as the buoys are getting set up. Fishing poles with casting raquet balls will be on site as well.
We plan on Heat Racing Round 1 at 2:00, Round 2 at 3:30, and Round 3 at 5:00.
Lunch and drinks all 3 days will be provided.
Any questions, let me know!
