Last year’s reinstituted “Pontoon Parade” proved to be a success and we are continuing it for 2024, with a couple of small changes. We will still gather in the North Bay (East of Crystal Cove) but the start time has changed to 11 am with 10:30 am registration to be eligible for prizes.

The other addition is the planned awarding of a trophy and also prizes for First $100, Second $60, and Third $40 place for the boat the judges vote as being the “best” (most festive, creative, and fun).

One change, to be eligible for the prizes, registration will be required. Please arrive around 10:30 and register with Dee and Mark Teasdale. Remember all are welcome in any boat able to keep up with the pace. You are encouraged to show your festive Independence Day spirit and have fun.

A lead boat will be assigned and the route will proceed counter-clockwise around the lake for those on land to cheer! The plan is to set a pace that allows people on shore to enjoy the boats, but still keeps the show moving…

We plan to take pictures and post them soon after the event.

Summary Details:
When: July 5, at 10:30 registration and Parade at 11 am
Where: North Bay near Crystal Cove

Special Request: To be eligible for prizes you will need to register with Dee and Mark Teasdale at 10:30.

Rain Day: July 6th, 2024 (same times)

As always, enjoy the Independence Day holiday safely and respectfully.
