Sweet! Start a topic on it Scott I'm going to delete this one because I'm keeping it at one event. I want to go hang to other events next season.

I think thats a good idea too man, make people look forward to it.

What happened to the "next year suggestion" thread?

I'll start a topic for the date on next years Regatta soon. I think we all need to work together on dates so all events will have a good turnout.

Think its a good deal, you gonna keep it towards the end of the season? People will recall the big events & what time of year they happen, regardless of the exact date. Still it doesn't hurt to start kickin it around early.

I think makin it a once a year deal is a good idea too. Although two would be cool, it may tend to water it down. And then you got folks that may not be able to swing both & have a hard time tryin to figure out which one to attend for whatever reasons: money, time off, etc...

I think once a year is good also , and the same time of the year would be nice . The weather was perfect this year for tent camping ..

If next year is a good as thsi one , Might just have to stay the night next year and make some runs Sunday morning ..

You can always post up a camping type get together at Tawakoni early in there year. Not really an event, just an announcement, and see who would be up for going. We have some smaller get togethers that are really enjoyable to attend. That way you don't have all the work trying to make it happen. I would be up for going back twice a year if I can pull it off with my schedule.  :smile30:

Lights and timing equipment would be great but I'm not above flag starts and video camera finishes. lol

Any idea on distance, full 1/4, 1000' or???

Any idea on classes or will it be indexed?

What's been thrown around for ideas care to give a teaser?

Set the dates and let us know. We will do all we can to be there.
We sure had a blast even though we never got to put in. It was nice having the beach with the lake down, may be a little crowded when the lake comes up. Great to see a new place to go in october.

As everyone has said scott keep us in the loop as well.  I will  keep my eyes out for ur or hobbs post about it.  Bobby I would try to keep it close to end of sept or first of oct.  This time of year the lake is never full.  Unless we just have a really  wet summer.  If it is full we will get it figured out.
