Did you do it from your phone? I go old school and download everything to my desktop. My phone drives me crazy. Guess it's an old dog new tricks thing.

Many thanks to the Oakland Wolverine club and the 50th running of the Mini Gold Cup Great Job! Can you imagine the real Gold Cup was there! Amazing history!

Thanks John

Oh ya a couple of old dogs took first place, one was there for the first Mini Gold Cup 50 years ago Jerry Betke and another was at the third, me.

Thanks to the OWMBC.

It was great to be a part of the 50th year running of the Mini Gold Cup. Having the real Gold Cup there was special.

John and Jerry. You old dogs did great. Especially Jerry who has not raced in a few years. Congrats to you guys.

 

[Jerry Betke]

A big thank you goes out to Joe Wiebelhaus for spearheading putting on this 50th running of the Mini Gold Cup. Thank you Paula, for all you did to help Joe make this a special event. To all the OWMNC members that showed up to assist, a big thank you as well. Thanks to Tim Ries for the special first place trophies. Having the original Gold Cup Trophy there was a special treat for everyone. I came to the race with only one expectation, that of having a good time with my boating friends. Winning one of those first place trophies was a bonus!!!! Thanks to all the contestants for a great day of racing and coming out to celebrate with the OWMBC. JB
