Is the name of the restaurant a secret? This would be a nice place to give them some credit.

Xavier and the rest of the Race to the Border team have lined up great food and drink for the party this Saturday and the National Weather Service is calling for "HIGHS IN THE LOWER 70S" so things are shaping up for a not to be missed kick-off party.

Latest update:

We have spend the weekend in South Padre completing all the arragement for the race. We met with LMYC board members as well as Sea Ranch harbor master to make sure we are ready to welcome all participants to the race.

The city and major of Port Isabel will host the brunch on Wednesday June 8th. and this will become the Major's Brunch in the future.

BIG CHANGE - The Sheraton hotel is no longer the Sheraton but has change hands and now is an Omni hotel called The Pearl. The events will remain the same but we welcome OMNI hotels to this race. Make suree to mention Race To The Border when you make reservations, and act fast as rooms sells quickly and the deadline for a special rate is May 1st.

Correction, from last post is the Mayor's brunch that promises to be a major event.

Hey guys, I sent an email to "info at racetotheborder" on the 11th of May pulling BANJO GIRL out of the race. I am not sure if it was never picked up on y'alls end but the boat will not be competing this year.

Please make sure the the RC and competitors know this.
