Well mother nature did it again. I can’t believe that since the club tournament in November the Illinois river has flooded 3 times. In the 30 years I have been motoring up and down this river I have never seen a fall, spring like this and really the last 2 years have not been pretty. Oh well we have to play the cards Mother Nature deals us.
Currently the river is expected to crest on Friday at 25.4 feet in LaSalle and it is starting to run chocolate. Plus they are calling for more rain on Wednesday night and Thursday. At 25.5 the level will not be at the top of the ramps anymore and it will be in the parking lot (again). We have rescheduled our tournament to June 13,14, 2009 Barto Landing.
Thanks Bob
