We will start boater registration and launching boats at 06:00 at the boat ramp.

Veterans will arrive at 07:00 and begin registration and loading boats.

Boat loading will occur 1 boat at a time in single file from the end of the dock.

Boaters will move into the dock as they are called in numerical order, single file to pick up their veteran.
