3rd Annual Tillamook Bay Kayak Day (TBKD 3) results

So the day is picked and it will be Saturday June 10th with a 8:33 low tide so we will have an early am launch 0600 with weigh in at 1500, potluck and awards to commence at 16:30. Mark your calendars and anyone interested in helping out speak up, or pm me. I would like to get the request letters for donations out ASAP. More to come and suggestions always welcome. The beneficiary for this event will be...The new HOW NOC chapter . Hope to get the raffle handled as smooth as this year and we will be rolling with the after party early again so those not staying aren't driving home at midnight.

Registration should stay at $30 this year. We will be having captains bags again this year for the (non mandatory) captains meeting Friday evening around 1900 in the old pool house in the center of the park there will be banners for HOW up.

The guy with the most weight in that single category wins first place for that category. We will have 3 first place ,second place ,and third place winners. You can only place in one category.

All competitors must check in with launch volunteer  in the morning before hitting the water as well as check back in when you are off the water even if your not weighing in. All competitors will get a number based on what order your registration was received and that will be your competitors number and how we check in and out, also may be the order the captains meeting goodies I'm trying to line up for captains bags

Since we're doing OCD....

"you're"

Oooohhhhh the CD crowd 

Saweet!! I will be there again next year!!! I will have my kids with me next year for family vacation during this time as well.

Let's start the sponsors list with :
ProCure, Phil's said they are in.
Kayak Shed, John said they are in.


Sent in requests for Jackson kayaks today. I will update when I hear back.


I'll be checking with Next Adventure likely after the new year but I'm almost 100% positive there in.

Anyone else wanting to help out in wrangling sponsors for this year let me know.

In !

   I can donate a chainsaw carving again this year. Have no clue if I will be able to fish....... But I can always volunteer for something. So ..............I'm in too.

I'm in.  Just let me know what you need help with.

I'm in, I'll help out however I can.

Shot out a few emails for sponsors today and I'm going to get to editing the request letter and get my third party H.O.W. paper work in so we get the donations rolling. Anyone wanting to help out with walking in or emailing request in shoot me a pm or text/email if you got my contact info already. Also ask if one of our moderators can put all the pertinent threads in one spot this year cuz one of our southern brothers is peeking around and planning on attending, just be easier if it's all in one spot. I'll keep y'all posted as we move forward I'm just not going to be as proficient and fast as last year as I'm also Coordinator for the H.O.W. N.O.C Chapter so gotta spread the help a little this year, I'll touch bases with the guys that already said they would help.

Bump so we got the rules and times.

Will there be a captain's meeting on Friday evening?
