Gearing up for boat races

Participants in the River City Racing Club International Model Powerboat Association-sanctioned race that will be held at the Mt. Vernon-Outland Airport lake today and Sunday check out their boats and the lake conditions on Friday afternoon. The River City Racing Club, based in Evansville, Ind., is returning the event to Mt. Vernon after being absent for eight years. “It’s been a long time since we had model boat racing in Mt. Vernon,” club president Ryan Hobby said. “And we hope to get more people interested in the area.” The two-day racing event is free and open to the public. TESA CULLI/REGISTER-NEWS

At least 225 people attended the Celebrity Waiter Dinner to benefit the Amy Center on Saturday night. Waiters gave their tables a theme, from Mardi Gras decadence to a Hawaiian flair, and had games to go along with their themes, like pin-the-tail-on-the-horse at the Kentucky Derby-themed table. Amy Center Executive Director Ladonna Richards said the organization hopes to raise as much as $12,000 with the annual event.
