Working bee 30/31st July


The next working bee will be held on the weekend of the 30th & 31st July to prepare the track for our next xlub round.

 

as usual there is plenty of work to be done and we would love to get some recovery tracks re-opened to make recovery times faster before our state round.

If Ian could add to this the type of supplies, equipment and man power we need that would be great.

 

Please let us know if you can make it so food and beverages can be arranged.

If anyone can give a hand over the weekend of 30/31st July it will be much apreciated.
Track preparation, recovery network,for state round and club events to be sorted. Need your input and ideas on how this will work.
We still are after people to keep an eye out for Bunting (you know the flags & stuff hanging over Car sale yards) This meeting will be a test run to check race readieness for State round ,so we will be checking signage and everything else. Also the recovery tracks need to be organized, fencing and cleaning also on the agenda, plus, plus plus etc
Solar panels for battery charging to be installed, Drains to be cleaned,the ones on track, gutters to be cleaned , Start line gantry straightened and fixed.

Also ,if anyone has acsess to large paint tin lids, or something similar,( flat, round ,square) 30/40 cms across so we can paint them white and put place names on them to assist competitors and recovery alike. Chainsaws, Brush cutters and rakes would also come in handy this weekend.

SORRA is in need of a grease gun for our machinery, if you see one that needs a new home

If you can give me a ring 040 777 4348 if you can help. We will organise food and drinks forhelpers .

Yep! It next weekend,.

If you can make it up to help it will make a difference. We need all the help we can get to make it all ready for State Championship round in November.
Also for the Night / Day event on 6/7th August.
We want to get all in place and use the Night / Day event as test for checking systems, ie recovery, new recovery tracks.
The new recovery tracks ( to be finnished yet) are to facilitate recovery during race, to help getting comptitors and vehicles back for repairs.
Street lights have been installed for the entire track length and have to check if they are in right positions, tar goes down next week!

Give me a ring if you are able to help, need numbers for catering
