Sept 12th - Petite Sandbar


P1011022.jpg

Well it was a nice warm weekend, and I was really surprised by how few boats where out. Great bands, great people, everyone that already put the boats away missed out on one of the few good ones this year.

P1019345.jpg

This was the day you could tell who the core boaters were. It was sprinkling and spitting rain most of the day and afternoon, but people were still out. When the skies opened up, you could tell it was going to be a great night for the Fox Lake fireworks over the water.

July 3rd - Freddies Boat Cruise


P1019313.jpg

a friends husband rented one of the Freddie's party boats for her 29th birthday ;). What a great way to get all your friends out on a boat with you. We had a great time, bring your own ipod and play whatever you want, open bar. This really is the way to have a party and let them do the clean up. I suggest you check this option out.

June 20th - Boat Show at Blarney Island


big_power_boat_show_010_169.jpg

If you wanted to see the biggest and fastest boats in the midwest, Blarney Island was the only place to be. Plus they raised some good money for the fireworks show. Blarney is looking to grow this into a bigger and better show every year. Go ahead.... try and run these in Lake Geneva... you can't. The chain is THE place to boat.

May 30th - Fireworks Fundraiser


P1018410.jpg

May 23rd - Memorial Day Weekend


P1018141.jpg

It was great to be back at the Sandbar hanging out during the day. A brief rain shower came through, but no one left and it was a good day to be out. Blarney's had a great band line up and brought the crowds both Saturday and Sunday. I wanted to take more pictures... it was just to may people! I am sure I will get back in form and get the pictures rolling as the season goes on.

Then we headed over to Famous Freddie's on their new shuttle boat to have some drinks. 1Despite the lakes being no wake we had a lot of fun. Thanks to all of those that made it out.

We are pleased to support the effort to bring the Fireworks back to the water in Fox Lake. Granted the FOTF ticket didn't win the super raffle, but the money went to a good cause.

Munson Marine with a dedicated area for FOTF'ers and Duchow's Boat Center FOTF raffle really made this show an easy one to hit for the chain o lakes crowd. Even though it was smaller than previous years, it still drew a crowd with some great boats.

Back at the boat races again on Thursday, Friday the Playboy Bunnies showed up, granted they were late, but they did show up in time to host the bikini contest. I thought it might be a sausage fest, but the island had a good mix of guys and girls for the event.

June 7th - Bring out the Rain


P1014849.jpg

After a nice start to Saturday we spent the rest of the weekend dodging wind and rain. It was still good to be on the boat and the camper canvas paid off. We have pictures of rafting up in petite bay on Saturday, a house party on the lakes for Deb's 29th birthday, and trying to get the chain crawl.com kicked off on Sunday in the rain. We made the most of the rainy weekend which kept a lot of people off the water.

After a cold week, despite dodging some rain ( and getting stuck in some) it turned out to be an excellent weekend. It was great to stop back at the sandbar for the first time this year and Blarney had some local favorites at the Island. Thanks to Modern Day Romeos for playing through the rain, and a big thanks to those that stayed to make it a great night. If you don't have your boat in the water, this weekend proved that you should.

Feb. 23rd - Indianapolis Boat and Sport Show


P1014173.jpg

The Indy show really is something to go see. Much more square footage than the Chicago show and a lot more lake boats that would suit the chain. Separate buildings full of inboards, fishing gear, and motorcycles really give you time to focus on the type of boat you are looking for. I suggest the drive next year to anyone interesting in checking out a lot of boats.

Oct. 7th - NIOC River Shiver


P1013746.jpg

What great weather we had for this event. You can't really call it the River Shiver when the temps are close to 90 in October! About 70 boats signed up for the run, and some big power showed up. Turned into a very exciting day.

This is the second annual FunontheFox end of the season party. We had some great contest entries with the winner receiving a prize pack including a $100 Munson Ski gift certificate. Of course we had to then take a ride around the lakes and go to the Blarney Island Drink-em-Dry closing party. We couldn't have asked for better weather.

<------- this girl to the left, took my camera to delete ONE (1) picture and ended up erasing my entire memory card. I thought all hope was lost, but then site member Scary132 came to the rescue with the means of recovering pictures from a memory card. I didn't get everything back but enough to give you an idea of how the weekend went.

What a great weekend for the Loop Cruise. They had over a hundred boats register, and we ended up leaving the piers with over 80 in the water. 70 and sunny certainly beats the last 2 years of low 50's and rain.
