Boating fun aids community projects
The 2020 Bayside Poker Run held on Sunday, Sept. 27 was a great success on a beautiful day with light winds and fair seas. The annual event featured small boats cruising the Chesapeake Bay in a navigational competition that included Onancock, Pungoteague, and Nandua creeks. This year’s event was sponsored by the Onancock Rotary Club with the assistance of the Pungoteague Ruritan Club, who had held the event the previous 13 years.
Following the Blessing of the Fleet and a captain’s meeting, boaters spent a day on the bay locating six checkpoints and a mystery location. Boaters gathered to attend the awards celebration at the Eastern Shore Yacht and Country Club on Pungoteague Creek at the end of the day with each crew assigned to a specific table to accommodate social distancing. Thanks to a generous donation from Perdue Foods, the boaters were served with a chicken dinner in containers following COVID-19 protocols.
This year’s small boat competition once again included the ‘Chesapeake Challenge’ in the navigational component of the event. This challenge required the crew of each boat to compete in a physical activity at each checkpoint. When the final points appeared on the leader board the Morgan’s Climate Master boat with Shane Morgan captained by Guy Pruitt topped the leaderboard with 169 points, followed by Sam Sellard and his crew on the Mean Jean. The ‘Chesapeake Challenge’ prize was $500.
The “Full Throttle” captained by Ryan Rouelle had the best poker hand with a full house, winning a weekend trip of equal value. His crew included George Turner, Thomas Scott, Ashlyn Phillips, Chase Sturgis and Ryan and Jeana Horner.
