The Hoopers Island Volunteer Fire Company is holding its Annual Watermen's Rodeo Boat Docking contest at the P.L. Jones Marina and Boatyard on Old House Point Road in Fishing Creek.
This event consists of watermen competing against each other by backing their boats into a slip as they do every day for their work. After backing into the slip, they hoop four lines on four separate poles. The fastest time wins. There is also a team competition which consists of two extra mates. One of the favorite categories is the youth competition. These young boat dockers put on a great show and do so with great times. At the end, there is a grand finale with everyone competing against each other for the fastest overall time. Prices and awards go to the winners!!!
Also on the day of the event there will be t-shirts for sale, multiple raffles and of course, great food. No coolers or drinks are allowed to be brought into the event.
All proceeds will go to the Hoopers Island Volunteer Fire Company. There is NO ADMISSION to this event. The doors will open at 11 am. Come out for a fun family day!!!
