Fort Myers Offshore Celebrating 2019/2020 Schedule Release With Weekend Fun Run

The release of any upcoming Fort Myers Offshore event scheduled is bittersweet in that it signals the coming end of the summer boating season while letting club members—most of whom are from the Midwest, Northeast and Canada—know that more powerboating opportunities await them. Based in Southwest Florida, the nonprofit organization, which raises college scholarship money for deserving students, released its nine-event schedule today and will get the 2019/2020 season going early with an informal fun this Sunday to Cayo Costa Beach.

“We’re hoping to have a couple of raceboats come if the weather cooperates,” said Tim Hill, the president of Fort Myers Offshore and the co-organizer of Roar Offshore, the final event of the six-race American Power Boat Association Offshore Championship, October 10-12, in Fort Myers Beach, Fla.
