This is easily one of the best run events that I've ever attended, the pond is perfect and the location has everything you could want.
Camping, hotels, restaurants and plenty of things to do all within minutes of the pond.
Plus it has two of the very best CD's around, always doing everything they can to not only call a fair race but make it fun for everyone.
Do yourself a favor and put this race on your calendar, you will not be disappointed!
And yes, the clock is on the water, no details are overlooked by this extremely hard working club.

If anyone is on the fence about coming to this event and had thoughts of maybe spending time in Niagara Falls, I have plenty of room at my place for your trailer or equipment.
I'm a half hour from both the race site and the Falls, and the property is very safe.
Just give me a shout!

38 racers and 154 boats with still over a month until the race. It is going to be another good one!

By all accounts our Can-Am for 2023 was a huge success, it was great to see old friends again and meet some new ones too.


Mark your calendar for August 24 & 25, 2024 and we hope to see you then.

This year's Oneida Cup was won by young Tyler Davis with perfect scores in several classes.

Tyler was also crowned "King of the Pond" winning our Open Class.

Team USA won the "Can-Am Challenge" this year making the series five to four.
