The 2013 Lake of the Ozarks Spring Harbor Hop

We are getting closer to the Lake of the Ozarks Spring Harbor Hop - Dog Days Bar & Grill and Shorty Pants Lounge will once again be stops in the event that marks the beginning of the Boating Season at Lake of the Ozarks!!

If you haven't been to a "hop" before, you are going to love this event!  Participants will venture around the Lake stopping at different participating Lake of the Ozarks Waterfront restaurants and marinas to draw playing cards.  The object is to build a winning poker hand that is awarded with different prizes.   Winning is great - but a day on the water visiting some of your favorite waterfront restaurants is even better!!

Players donate $15 per seven card hand and the fun starts as they hop around the Lake to draw their hand at any of the 30+  participating restaurants and marinas around the Lake. 

Here is a list of the Prize Allocations from the Convention and Visitors Bureau website:

1st Place - 10%
