Shootout on the Strip
This family fun event will bring over 5,000 people to the historic Bagnell Dam Strip to see the boats that will be racing during the Shootout in person, up close and personal. The Strip, which will have racing boats on display all the way down it, will be closed to traffic during the Meet & Greet. This allows everyone to get a closer look, take some photos, and even talk to some of the Shootout participants and collect autographs from the drivers and their teams.
Boats will begin lining up on Hwy. 242 at 2 pm and will then parade to their spots on the strip around 3:45 pm. Everything should be in place and ready by 5 pm, and the rest of the evening is set aside for you to enjoy the show.
Boat Bounce
Deco Insurance is hosting their 3rd annual Boat Bounce which gives you the chance to win a big cash prize! At 8 pm during the Shootout on the Strip, 500 rubber boats will be dropped by the Lake Ozark Fire Department. The person in possession of the raffle ticket that matches the number of the boat that bounces closest to the target will win half the pot!
Tickets are $10 each, and the actual amount of winnings will depend on the total amount of tickets sold. If all 500 rubber boats are claimed, that means a possibility of a $2,500 prize! You don't have to be present to win, so even if you can't make it out on Wednesday night, you've still got a shot. Purchase tickets online through the Shootout website.
Dinner, Drinks & Live Music at Casablanca
Since the Shootout on the Strip will be taking place in the evening, you're going to get hungry for dinner. When that happens, head on over the to best bar & restaurant on the Bagnell Dam Strip. If you grab a seat out on the patio, you can watch all the action while you eat. Beginning at 7 pm, we'll have live music inside from the talented John Allen.
As a matter of fact, you should come on in early and enjoy a drink from the bar while you watch the race teams arrive and set up. Those seats will be waiting for you if you'd like to watch the races over the weekend on our TVs instead of from a boat too.
Once you're done checking out all of the awesome Shootout boats Wednesday night, come on back by for some more fun at Casablanca Pub & Grill. Hopefully you won a tidy sum of cash in the Boat Bounce to use while you're here! Even if you aren't the big winner, this event is sure to be an exciting one you do not want to miss.
