Hi All,
You know
Easter is coming up when the camping catalogues start making their way into
your letter box. Many of you will be taking the opportunity to get out of
town over the Easter break, while still others will be training the house down
in preparation for upcoming events.
Whatever
you are doing this long weekend, enjoy some chocolate and stay safe on the
roads!

COMMITTEE NEWS:
1.
The Club is currently finalising a sponsorship guideline document to be
implemented along with the next year’s calendar. The intention is to attract
sponsors and partners to support the different race series and/ or individual
races, in a manner that will deliver benefits back to the members. Potential
sponsors and partners should consider what services and benefits they would
provide to members, and in return they would receive great exposure to a
vibrant and active club membership.
2.
Our provisional 2015/2016 calendar can be viewed here.
