Visit us at the 2019 Boat Show - Booth 1615! 
The annual Toronto International Boat Show is always a great venue for saying hello to fellow racers and sharing information about the upcoming offshore racing events. Although launch is still about three months away, the boat show seems to jump start the adrenaline in all of us as we look ahead to the summer season.  
 
Make sure you stop by to say hello at the LOOR booth, #1615, and to ask for a free giveaway, available while quantities last. Pick up the 2019 LOOR flyer and signup to receive your free copy of the 2019 Offshore Racing Guide. In addition, we will have flags and plaques from the 2018 season at the booth for those who didn't make it to the Flag Ceremony or Awards Banquet in November.  
 
The 2019 offshore racing season is already exciting for your committee as we plan for the 30th LO300 Challenge. And, with special events and promos to recognize this milestone, the 2019 LO300 promises to be memorable for all race participants. More details to be shared in the coming months. Registration for all LOOR events opens on January 15 and don't forget after the Early Bird registration deadline on March 15th, the rates go up.  
 
Check out the Important Event Dates below and make sure you reserve your seats for the LOSHRS Awards Banquet coming up on February 9th.
See you soon!
