APBA ANNOUNCES NEW 2010 NATIONAL TOUR STOP
National Tour Coming to Belle
River Canada
Eastpointe,
MI - The APBA is excited to announce the newest Tour stop on the 2010 APBA
Watercross National Tour - Belle River,
Canada. It has been more than 10 years that a
National event has been held in Canada
and the APBA is excited to see racing return to Eastern
Canada. The event will take place on July
17-18, 2010 at Lakeview Park in Belle
River Canada. Belle
River is just across the border from Detroit, Michigan not far
from Windsor Canada. The
event will be held the week after the Harbor Beach, Michigan national event
that will make it easy for racers to attend and save on travel expenses.
The Belle River
event will be a great race with a HUGE cash purse that is expected to be the
largest cash purse offered in many years.
Belle River is an historic
town in beautiful Lakeshore bordering Lake St. Clair.
With an abundance of sights to see, things to do, and places to shop, Belle River
is an ideal location to host an event. Minutes
away are great marine and golf resorts, inviting beaches, camping, museums,
conservation areas, and historic buildings.
Lakeview Park is a first class facility with a
pristine white sandy beach and many great amenities. The city recently received
a 3 million grant to upgrade Lakeview
Park, so you can expect
many new features to the already beautiful facility.
The event
will take place within the boundaries of Lakeview
Park on Lake St.
Clair and run in conjunction with the 16th Annual SunSplash
Festival. In addition to professional
watercross racing the annual festival features a classic Car Cruise with over
500 classic cars that will line the eleven blocks of downtown. Just a sampling
of the other events includes: a carnival with rides, parade, vendor booths,
arts and crafts, refreshment tent with free fun and continuous entertainment
including live bands that start Friday night and will dazzle you right through
Sunday.
The
2010 APBA Watercross National Tour will also have stops in Parker, Arizona - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Harbor Beach,
Michigan; Colonial Beach,
Virginia; and finish off the season with the APBA
Watercross Nationals in Nashville,
Tennessee. The APBA is searching for one more West
Coast stop to complete the 2010 schedule.
The APBA has worked hard, together with its race promoters, to find some
of the best race sites in the country with nice beaches, clean water and fun
locations. The 2010 National Tour will have over $90,000 in cash and prizes up
from grabs in 2010.
