Long island poker run
The "LONG ISLAND STAMPEDE" poker run is on!!!!!!!!!!!
The committee of the "Long Island Powerboat Club" consists of: Bill Carroll, Chris Ryder, Joe Cibellis, Bill Betz, Joe Sgro and Jeff Cropper, along with the assistance and co-production of Billy Frenz and the National Power Boat Association.
This committee has set out to return a world quality Poker Run event back to the south shore of Long Island.

The 3rd card pick up will be at Kismet, Fire Island. This is a 26 mile ocean run.
The 4th Card stop will be in Bayshore at Nicky's On The Bay. (Not confirmed at this time. If Nicky's is not available a boat will provide the card pick up.) This is a 5 mile run straight across the bay.

This is very cool. I am looking forward to checking this event out. I'm very curious on the amount of entries that you guys will get. I hope it is a great turn out. There is so much racing roots and foundation here on the South Shore of Long Island that having an event like this will hopefully bring more of it out again and set a strong precedence for the future. It is a pre season event so the waters will clearer then mid season. Just hope the participants have their machines rigged and ready to pound some pistons and burn some octane by then. Its good you are getting the word out now. My best to "The Long Island Power Boat Club" for putting this together and good luck with the event!

we have been very diligent about safety and have all our insurances in place, we came up with plans and routes to help insure it is a very safe event. We will begin to cover all this as we get closer to the event.

We are going to idle a parade lap out of Freeport up the main channel to a staging area right in front of the Coast Guard station so we shouldn't have any problems with water at all. The whole way out of Freeport is plenty deep even at extreme low tide.
