Redfish Raftup
GBF's annual Redfish Raftup takes place during Labor Day weekend next to Redfish Island in Galveston Bay. In years past, nearly 150 private boats have gathered around the Star Gazer to listen to a concert by singer/songwriter Kelly McGuire.
Join us in 2010 on Sunday, September 5 and Monday, September 6 for a great day on the water listening to the live music of Kelly McGuire!
Check out a video of 2009's Redfish Raftup, posted by our friends with "Talk of the Bay" at wiredin.cc.
