Train
in the sun - April 2010 |
Peter Schweppe is organising his annual training trip to Spain
next April. Going out on sat 10 April. Returning home sat 24th April.
Total cost will be less than 700 euros, to include flights, accommodation
(half board) and transfers to and from hotel.
This is a very popular trip and places are limlted so book early.
Contact Peter on 086 1768945 or email him at
swepsie@eircom.net for full
details.
As previous attempts to organise atimekeeper panel have had minimal
response we have decided to offer an incentive by way of remuneration
of expenses for TT timing. We have in mind a fixed payment per event,
the actual ammount not having been decided yet.
Ideal candidates would be retired from racing members who wish to
continue to be associated with the cameraderie and craic of the
racing.
An alternative might be racing members who do not participate in
the time trials themselves but would be willing to commit to supporting
them.
Another possibility might be family members or friends of members.
The continuation of IVCA racing is totally dependant on sufficient
members volunteering to carry out the necessary duties.
Please, please, please get in touch with Donal or myself.
