About This Event
Bass Lake Boat and Car Show - May 16-18, 2025, Bass Lake California
Come join us for one of the best events of the year. This low-key event is held at Bass Lake located in the Sierra foothills outside of Fresno. The event is co-hosted between our chapter and the Southern California chapter and is a great way to meet fellow boat enthusiasts while having fun. It is also sponsored by the local Lions Club. The Lions provide auction items and the proceeds go directly to local charities and scholarships. This event will be held May 16-18 with a fun BBQ-potluck dinner on Friday, a boat/car show, a poker run, a scrumptious dinner on Saturday, and a relaxing breakfast on the water on Sunday.
Dinner on Friday – Potluck and BBQ. The SoCal chapter will provide BBQ bricks and utensils. Please bring a meat item to BBQ. For NorCal/Tahoe members, if your last name begins with A-K bring an appetizer; L-R bring a salad; S-Z bring a dessert. The event will be held at Miller’s Landing, Cabin 1 (directly across from the Miller’s store. Miller’s also has a restaurant that serves up delicious food if you’re interested.
Saturday, May 17, skipper’s meeting at 9:30 on the docks at Miller’s Landing. Poker run begins at 10:00. You will be given an envelope with five cards in it. This will be your hand and will be turned in after the parade around the Lake. If you wish to join the poker run, you'll be asked to donate $10 to participate. As we did last year, classic cars will be displayed above and in front of the Miller’s Landing Store. Feel free to take rides around the lake during the show.
Saturday night’s dinner will be held up the hill next to the registration desk inside the convention room. It will be held inside so the weather shouldn’t be an issue.
New this year, we will not be having an organized brunch. Instead, we are encouraging everyone to meet together informally. We are working with the Forks to see if we can get a couple of tables reserved.
This is a great event and we hope everyone can make it!
