These guys are having there 3rd annual poker derby June 21st on the Red River. We have been in the last 2 and had a great time.
Any one interested in going?

I'm interested. If I don't have the boat in town I'll come out to where ever your final checkpoint is.

Geographically it may make sense to go to the Royal Manotoba Yaught Club first. (check point at the docks 10 am -4pm) drive up traffic can park by the club house and walk down to the docks There is gas at the docks, and berverages and food available in the club house

Redboine boating Club in the middle check point will be at the docks as well, we may have to have a check point here at the gates or just across the street as Redboine may request no walk up traffic to the outer docks. Gas available at the docks

Final Check point is the Pony Corral Pier 7.
The check point here will be open from 10 am thru 4pm. The Check point should be down by the dock entrance where there will be a couple boat displays, Camaro Club gathering and The Atintique Motorcycle Club through out the day.


Hands can be bought and or pulled at all check points or just 1 check point. Some people just visit the Pony Pier 7 and do it all there.

We collect participants names and contact information in the case they buy a winning hand and are not able to stay till the winning hang announcements. they will be contacted as a winner via phone call or email whichever is provided to us.

Derby closes at 4pm where giving us time to determine the best poker hands which will be anounced at 6pm on the Patio of the Pony Corral Pier 7, silent auction winners anounced @ 6:30 pm

we have a map of the river incuding all the check points, boat launches and gas spots. Any one needing the map please request one via email or fax

I plan on going, know a few people who have gone the last two years and they said they had a blast. WOuld have gone too but I was always working, BUT NOT THIS YEAR!! I will be there with bells on. Looking forward to seeing the city from a different view.

Sober??

lol, long term forcast is showing sweet weather....hope it holds start getting those boats ready guys and gals

I'm getting the boat out this weekend for a preseason once over. I think there will be 4 or 5 boats in our group. Plans are to meet up at the Main st. boat launch early and go to Gaffers at Lockport for lunch and then do the derby. See you on the River.

Can't guarantee that I'll be sober, if your lucky I'll be when I get there.

Let me know where you're ending up, I'll try to meet you for a beer.

i might just be out there with my blue flake hydrostream viper. just in the process of re-rigging it with a 200 merc!! if all goes well------

That I would like to see!
If you make it out come say hi if you see us.

hey, i emailed the guy for the map but got no response yet? anyone else able to help out?

I don't have a map but I can tell you where the check points are, you can't miss them.
The Royal Manitoba Yacht Club is a couple of miles north of the Main Street & north perimeter boat launch, it's the only large marina in that direction, I would start there.
Head south passed the Louise Bridge for a couple of miles and you'll find the Redboine Yacht Club, they will be set up on one of the docks, you can't miss it.
Continue south to the Pony Corral, it's just passed St.Vital park.
We are launching at Main Street and cruising out to Lockport then doing the derby on our way back.

here is the map im trying to up load it, click on the above links or copy and paste them in your browser
