Awards in the Park after the Race
Note: I have set the
start time a little earlier this year due to the annual Toy Run.
The Toy Run starts at the
Merritt Island Mall at 12:00pm and head across Hwy 520 to US1 and
then proceeds south to north Melbourne.
Traffic will be closed on those roads in the
direction of the parade till the parade passes, this usually take about an
hour.
With the skippers meeting at 11:00 and start
time at 12:00 we should be fine for traffic logistics. If you are traveling
up from the south and plan to stay at Whitley's you can park at Whitley's
and walk to Lee Wenner park from under the bridge.
If you are setting a boat up at Lee Wenner
park, get there early--there is craft fair this weekend at Cocoa
Village. The trailer parking will fill up quickly with people looking for a
place to park.
