A Big Thank You!
The BOD would like to thank Cynthia Kempton for all the work she put in for many years in charge of trophies. She has come up with some beautiful ones and we all thank her for a GREAT JOB! She is passing the baton for 2020 so if anyone is interesting in taking over, contact someone on the board or speak up at the Membership Meeting. (1st Wednesday of each month - No meeting in January)
From the Desk of Jerry Morlewski - Planning Committee Chairman
Hello Fellow Racers;
The Planning Committee has been discussing both short and long term improvements to the race track. There are two short term items that we would like to complete before the 2020 season. First is to build a new single plate scale platform in order to improve the amount of time it takes to get through impound. No more need to adjust the scales for every vehicle.
Second is to put in some additional paved paddock spots. They would be organized throughout the track but paid for by the participant. Details on how WHRRI would move forward with the plan depends on how many people are interested. Sorry, but we can only offer this to people in the upper paddock at this time due to drainage concerns down by the swamp. Please send me an email or talk to a BOD member if you are interested.
Long term plan updates next month.
