Get excited for the upcoming charity powerboat run making stops all across beautiful Lake Murray. This is the second year my husband (Bret Laso) and I have hosted the event. Our inaugural event was tremendously successful in raising $40,000 for local charities. The charities included The Big Red Barn Retreat and Richland County Sheriff's Department. The Big Red Barn Retreat is an amazing program which trains and supports veterans and first responders. Sheriff Lott used the donation to purchase vests for the K9 program. We look forward to surpassing last year's donations to these same charities.
We have big things in store for this year's run. We have impressive powerboats registered from all across the US including New York, Michigan, Florida, and Texas. We anticipate over 100 boats to register for this year's run. Lake Murray Marina and Liberty on the Lake will be the host marina. Saturday morning's run will feature stops at some of Lake Murray's newest attractions including The Cove, Martin's Landing, and Putnam's Harbor Marina.
We are a family friendly event and welcome spectators from land and water. We are accepting sponsorships, donations, and registrations through June 21st. For more information or to get involved, check us out at https://www.lakemurraypowerboatrun.com/ or on Facebook @TheDamBoatRunAtLakeMurray.
