I have talked with the family and We are going to place Bobbys Rock in the Tot on the sunday (mothers day) the 8th after the first timers run. plan on putting it at ed banks around 11am

i hope this works for those that want to be there, as it is what seems to be the best timeing for the family members that want to attend.

We'll make it work.

Works for me!

A great way to celebrate his life. See you there.

If I can find someone to split gas with I will be there.

Can't make it family engagements and all that but I think it's great you are doing this in memory of Bobby he was such a great guy.

just bumping this up, didnt want anyone that may want to attend to miss it.

Like Greg I have family engagements, but will be there in spirit.

Scott and I will be there and we will probably camp at Sandbar and then go to Dierks afterwards. Hope to see others there!

Don't forget about sunday! Bobbys Rock!

It's at 11am at Ed Banks.

Wish I could have made it.

just wanted to say thanks agin to those that were able to attend. I think this was a great way to show how much the paddling community misses/ cared for Bobby.

i also want to say thanks agin to walter Felton for getting the rock and haveing it ingraved.

I loosely counted 41 in attendance. About 30 or so were paddlers, the rest family. I think the family was touched to know Bobby has not been forgotten.

Afterwards, many went over to Dierks to surf and play. After a few hours of playing in the first and second hole, a funny thing happened. Someone made a move to the third hole, and everyone shortly followed. A big-hole riding session broke out, and fun was had by many boater and spectators.

I remember that I saw Bobby almost every time I went to Dierks, and many times he would still be playing in the third hole after I, and most everyone else was whooped and done for the day. I think Dierks was one of Bobby’s favorite places, So I hope he enjoyed the show.
