All of the action will be found downtown at Lakeside Memorial Park, where more than 50 powerboats with drivers from across the country and ages ranging from 12–75 years old, will compete in seven different classes of competition!

Race fans can expect to see action-packed powerboat racing in front of Lakeside Memorial Park on a ¾ mile buoy-marked course at speeds of up to 120 mph.

The Annual Ron Baker Senior Memorial Regatta, a national competition organized by the Twin City Power Boat Association and sponsored by local businesses, starts at 1pm Saturday and 12pm on Sunday, rain or shine.

The race is named after late Forest Lake resident Ron Baker, a TCPBA member who worked for several outboard and boat manufacturers and promoted local boat racing dating back to the 1950s.
