As we have done in the past years, we have had an auction to benefit a local charity. This year I have personally picked a a scholarship fund that is very important to me. It is the Ted Abriel Children Scholorship fund. Teddy Abriel was a 20 year Veteran Firefighter for the Albany Fire Department assigned to the Rescue Squad. Ted was killed in the line of duty while fighting a high rise fire in Febuary. Ted was 44 years old and left behind 4 children. Teddy was always going the extra mile to help out anyone in need. Ted and his crew responded and worked at the WTC tragedy for many days. Teddy was a hell of a firefighter,a great father and husband and a true friend to many of us.

Cost of the event is $225.00 ..($185.00 for LGPBA members)

The price includes

Docking for your boat for the entire weekend
LG usage permit for the weekend
Party on Friday night (lite horderves and drink specials)
Poker hand for the run
Lunch during the run for two
Dinner after the run for two
One Heck of a good time.

I will have the permits in hand and we will not be harassed by the local agencies this year
