The Detroit River Regatta Association (DRRA) is proud to announce that the Detroit Yacht Club (DYC) will host a fundraiser to help preserve a great Detroit tradition on Friday, April 27th from 5:30pm-8:30pm. The night will feature silent and live auctions with food and live entertainment.

Proceeds from the night will go towards the operating expenses for the long standing Detroit hydroplane races, to be held on July 13-15th on the Detroit River. As the presenting sponsor the DYC is leading the charge for sponsorship dollars and will attempt to raise more than the $100,000 that was raised the previous year.

Tickets are $100 a person and corporate tables are available while they last. To make reservations please call Jennifer McDonnell at 313-824-2788 or Carly Roberts at 313-824-2887.

About the Detroit Gold Cup: The APBA Gold Cup, also known as the APBA Challenge Cup, is among the most prestigious of motorsport trophies, in part because it is the oldest active trophy in all of motorsports. The trophy was first awarded in 1904! In comparison, the first Indianapolis 500 race was held in 1911 and their Borg-Warner trophy was first awarded in 1936.
