I believe a portion of the entree fees will go to an ALS group and the rest will go back into the payout. None of the entry fees are being kept by the marina

I'm about 99.9% sure yes, I don't think they break them down by cities or regions of the state. Let me call the people putting it on and find out for ya

nah dont worry about it.

Its great to finally see a charity event for this disease. I have been to several ALS walks with my wife.... those afflicted with this disease will change your life. they are the strongest people i have ever met. I wish i had known about this sooner. My wife will be happy to hear about this event. We pray for everyone inolved in this event and thank god for those willing to contribute to a great cause. My wife is my hero (she has ALS) and I am sure you will meet someone who inspires you at this event. Those afflicted truely are amazing individuals.

There are many clinical trials out there needing to be funded and the donations give these people hope and faith. One day we will find a cure!!!
God bless.
