2016 Annual Meeting & Awards Banquet

December 7, 2015

The OPA race seasons just keep on getting better every year and 2015 was no exception! We had another successful season in 2015 with races in Seaside Heights, NJ; Lake Ozark, MO; Atlantic City, NJ; Manasquan, NJ; St Clair, MI; Port Huron, MI/Sarnia, Ont, Can; and Fall River, MA. This year the OPA World Championship was hosted by the Englewood Beach Waterfest in Englewood, FL. This race site was off the hook! The town of Englewood welcomed us with open arms and gave us two days of beautiful weather to race and allowed us to crown our World Champions!
