Roger Newton Memorial RC Boat Show set for virtual event, Feb. 27

While most of the state continues to decline in its Covid numbers, and all but one of the regions in the Governor’s current reopening plan will be in Phase 2 by this Monday, we still can’t congregate at the mecca we all know as the Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum for a bit longer.

That means the Roger Newton Memorial RC Boat Show that we typically get together at for a little showing off, bench racing, catching up with friends, and trash talking about the coming season won’t happen in person this year.

But thanks to David Newton, the event will live on – virtually.

ERCU and the Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum have teamed up under the leadership of Newton, to make sure the show will go on. Mark your calendars now for Saturday, Feb. 27 at 11:30 a.m. The event is free on Zoom, and is open to all clubs to attend and participate.

There will be further announcements about the agenda and extras closer to the date of the event.

There’s a Facebook event page, where more news will be shared, at https://www.facebook.com/events/244263010581751
