2008 FUN RACE (under construction)

INDEX - Work Committee - Action shots - BBQ - Sponsors & Awards - Race Results - Conversation

This is the 24th consecutive year of the AOSA Fun Race and was sponsored again by Alley Cat Brewing. It's largely due to Jaye & Jim's efforts that this event works so well. In fact the race started late as Jim had to make one last trip to Drayton Valley to pick up some donations from a sponsor. What a dedicated guy. 

Date: Saturday July 19th Noonish at EYC.
Start: 13:30ish off EYC dock.
Bring your own steak barbeque to follow (6:00ish), salad, potatoes and beer provided. 
Awards presentation after BBQ.
 For donation of prizes please contact Jim Spalding at 483-8378 (hm), S.V. Rhumbo Ch.16.

THE EVER WATCHFUL 2008 WORK COMMITTEE.

    

ACTION SHOTS ON THE WATER.

 

THE BARBEQUE and AWARDS.

 

 

AWARDS & SPONSORS, (without whom this race could not run).

It should be noted that when Jay handed out the multiple prizes to each boat, one prize was for each crew member. This was done to reduce the presentation time. As you can see from the load of prizes in her arms, some of the crews were big this year!

  1. Alley Cat Brewing - Neil Herbst for a keg of his wonderful bubbly stuff.  Everyone looks forward to a mug of this stuff at the end of a hot day of racing.  It goes down sooo easy at the end of the race.

THOUGHTS for NEXT YEAR. 
The AOSA Fun Race is the best attended cruiser race on the lake.  It is extremely successful due to a very energetic organizing committee that has fine tuned this event to what it is today.  

See you next year.
