TRAILER FUND
OK guys we are pretty sure that we have a nice starter trailer for the series to buy. This has been a goal for a while so that we can keep all the gear for the events enclosed and have the trailer go to each venue. I have been keeping my eye open for something that most vehicles would be able to tow and I found once….at a reasonable price. SO we are doing a MAJOR FUND RAISER this weekend so that we can purchase the trailer. We will have donation jars at registration on both days as well you can e-mail me donations to normont@islandnet.com via pay pal or interac on-line. 100% of all the money will go towards this trailer. Please help us out….we want to buy this trailer and get it all set up for 2011. (Just so you know…We have never taken any money out of the series…it all goes back into the series and the clubs…that is just how we roll with it)

HELP NEEDED

RACE
If you can help out with the event on either day. Either Set up. If you are an experience timer. If you are experienced with registration. Or Tear down and clean up please e-mail: Paul Brend [Paul.Brend@saanich.ca] or drew mackenzie [dmac247@gmail.com] ASAP.

DRIVING
We have been using the Frontrunners-Nanaimo Van to tow the equipment around….it went down to Victoria right after the Duncan race. BUT of course I am driving down another vehicle. SO if you are car pooling with someone from up island to the race and could give us a hand driving the Frontrunners van and trailer back up island that would be GREATLY appreciated. Please contact me.

TYCHO
We are taking applications from people interested in taking care of Tycho….so send in your resume! Actually we are pretty lucky with people helping out. At this event Wendy is actually down at the NACT race in Colorado so I am SOLO. Action moto Susan Emery is helping me out a lot but if you might be able to help out on Sunday with Tycho please let me know. I just need someone to watch him during the masters and expert races and possibly during awards. We can split it up if needed. Thanks.

HOSPITALITY TENTS
On Saturday Jamie Emery and Series Sponsor ACTION MOTORCYLES will have a hospitality area set up for the event. They will be serving up pumpkin pie! Alongside that Bryn Shapperd from our Series Sponsor Saltspring Coffee will have 24 litres of coffee. First come, first served. Bryn will be there at 11am so the beginners and spectators, moms/dads can get in on it.

Can we suggest that people bring travels mugs to the event. This would cut down on waste, and keep beverages hotter, longer.

Thanks to Action Motorcycles and Saltspring Coffee!

SSCXWC Display

Wendy’s swimsuit and Championship belt are now on display at Frontrunners Nanaimo. We are sending a challenge out to the 2011 SSCXWC hosts…San Fran….that they have to come up and challenge our champions to take the belts to their event next year. Stay tuned for the return of NISSCOTU!
