It is with deep regret and frustration that Myron Buxton and Allen Baskett, Co-Chair's
of the Celina Governors Cup Regatta committee announced today that the 2010 Race has been cancelled.
"The
continued deterioration of the water in and around our race course area has left us with no choice but to cancel our race
in the interest of safety for our volunteers, the racers, and all the support personnel that it takes to conduct the Celina
Governors Cup Regatta" says Baskett.
"Our committee has been working all year in preparation for
this year's event" says Buxton. "The racers and crews want to race, and our sponsors are supporting our efforts.
It's a shame that circumstances beyond of the control of our committee and their efforts have put us in the position of
having to cancel this year's event".
The Regatta Committee wishes to thank all our Local Sponsors,
Volunteers, and Community Leaders who stepped up to support the effort to make this year's race happen. Unfortunately
the issues with our lake were too much to overcome. The committee is looking forward to bringing the World to Celina in 2011
for the APBA Inboard Hydroplanes World Championships. The committee will be ready.
