Would like to present the:
Solomons Offshore Grand Prix presented by Bayside Toyota/Chevrolet
October 2-3 2010
www.solomonsrace.com
The Chesapeake Bay Power Boat Association and the OPA have teamed up again for the 2010 National Championships with a brand new race site. This will be the second to last stop for the racing series as the boats come into town located on the Patuxent River for a weekend of action packed racing.
This event will take the place of the Cambridge Challenge scheduled for earlier in the year. We have been racing at the Hyatt for several years and have a great relationship with a great venue but it was time for a change. We would like to thank everyone at the Hyatt for a great site and a tremendous amount of support!
With that being said this is event is going to be great and we are getting a ton of support from the area and everyone is looking forward to it. We are still getting a lot of information together but we do have our website up and of course will be adding more information as we get it.
And YES there will be a poker run that weekend with the information coming out soon!!!
If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me and we hope to see everyone there!!!!

FYI- no golf carts are allowed on Solomons Island per the Calvert County Sheriff Office
They esp don't like them if there is beer on them...Last edited by MarylandMark; 04-07-2010 at 08:15 AM.

I am sorry to forget this part because it is very important. There have been two people that have really helped the event take off.....
Joe Peary who is a local down there and use to attend races with BobbyB. He has been working with PAX and Sponsors and has done a great job.
Chris Mcnelis is a local real estate agent in Solomons and is behind what we are doing 100%!!!!
These two have made this event go much smoother and I want to thank them for that!!!

Promoting this event was a team effort, If it wasn't for the people involved as Mikey mentioned, it may not have ever happened. As promoter of this event, I know I speak for all of us in the tri-county area, I/we, counldn't be happier and more excited about this event. We look forward to a long lasting relationship with the OPA and the Racers alike. We hope you all will enjoy all we have done to be able to bring this event to Solomons Island, MD. You will find in future updates that the lodging is plentyful, The food is great, and the southern hospitality is second to none. We welcome all of you. Be Safe! Joe

Great job Mikey. As much as I enjoyed playing a round of golf at the Hyatt, a change of venue was needed. I'm sure there's plenty of places to play near Solomans.
Gino, are you in for a round on Friday? Anyone else play?
