 LAKE ELSINORE ---- At least 100 personal watercrafts will take to the lake Saturday in the first of a series of racing events to be held periodically in ensuing months, organizers said. The series, billed as the Lake Elsinore Watercraft Dash, is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. Saturday at Elm Grove Recreational Area, which is on Lakeshore Drive between Lowell and Poe streets and next to the city's boat launch.
Admission for spectators is $3 per person, Lake Elsinore Aquatic Resources Director Pat Kilroy said. Kilroy said the races will bring some excitement to the lake during the typically stagnant off-season. "We always want to see the lake used to the highest public benefit," Kilroy said. "Especially in the off-season, Elm Grove beach is underutilized. This is the perfect event for this time of year." Saturday's races will be the first that have been held at the lake in several years, said organizer David Pulley of DMP Motorsports. "We had one here about three years ago," Pulley said. "In the late '90s, there were some races. So this is kind of bringing it back again at a bigger level."
