Hi Everyone ...

We've confirmed access to the Blissville Airstrip for next Sunday & Monday, May 20 & 21 for our first event of the year. Similar to our last event last year, but spread over 2 days, it will be a open school/practice session on Sunday and timed laps on Monday.

Schedule:
Each day will probably be as follows:
- 9.30-10.30am with registration & setup
- 10.30am - drivers meeting
- 11.00am - cars on course around

Anyone interested is welcome to attend

Fees:
New memberships include the first event (first day included, second day is a separate event) and are $30 for the year's membership. As mentioned, our per-event fee is going to go up to $20 this year, so the combined cost for both days is $50 for new members, $40 for existing 2012 members. If you attended one of our winter events, your membership is valid for 2012.

Location:
The event is going to be at the Blissville airstrip in Hoyt. It's out past the Geary raceway, and here's a google map link to the location. Please be respectful of the homes in the area and arrive in a calm fashion.

Suggestions:
People with their own helmets are suggested to bring it with them. Helmets must be worn by drivers and passengers when on the course. The club has helmets which can be borrowed as well. Also, you must remove all loose items from your car when on the course, as well as the drivers side floor mat if it is not well fastened to the floor, to avoid having it obstruct pedals. Also make sure to top off fluid to ensure proper levels. There is a gas station about 15 minutes from the track if required.

Spectators and visitors are welcome, they just need to sign the waiver when arriving. Anyone entering in the event is expected to help out with control points, and any help offered to setup and tear down before & after the event is appreciated.

Looking forward to our first event, and we'll see everyone there!
