Announcements

·        Operation “Move Shed” will take place the weekend of September 16-17. Contact Tim Kight to find out the schedule. 

·        Prior to the September 23-24 Grantsburg Motocross weekend, the following tasks need to be done. If you’re a club member looking to pitch in, feel free to take the initiative on some of these.

·        Trim weeds around starting gate and first corner.

·        Install new irrigation pipe in parking lot section. I am going to buy more hose like the stuff we used around the rest of the track and will bring it up on Friday 9/22/2006.

·        Fix leak in pipe under first 65cc cut-off.

·        Tie the two water barrels together up by the 65cc cut-off.

·        Put out garbage cans.

·        Add a couple water hoses to near the finish line.

·        We’ll need people to water on Friday night before practice and Saturday night before the race.

·        Outhouses – I’d like to rent some outhouses for the race weekend, we have the worst smelling outhouses in the district and we could get 8 -12 outhouses spread around to please our customers and make it little more convenient for people.

·        We'll need someone to run the mini track - Bill will not be there.

·        Mark Krey, please try to get additional flaggers for the mini track. You had some people lined up before.

·         Find out the name of the guy that pumps out the outhouse and get him to the track next weekend.

·         Get the outhouse pumped out and to make sure we don't overfill it when we put water back in it.

·         Toilet paper for outhouse.

·         We need a few more people to help out at the Saturday practice.

·         2006 dues are beyond overdue. They are a still affordable, $25. To stay off the 2006 shame list, bring your dues to the next meeting or send them to:
