Default Final Winter Series Round - 2 March

Just to let you all know that the burger van caught fire last Sunday at 7am when a faulty timer inside kicked in and set the unit alight! I am sure that some of you who are reading this are actually glad to see the van go up as their tea was sometimes not the best that you have ever had and I can confirm this from my own experience!!!

This means that it is unlikely that there will be any hot food or drinks available at the final round of our Winter Warmer series on 2 March. The bar in the main clubhouse will be open from midday for cold drinks and bar snacks, but this is very limited. Our apologies for this as clearly this is something that we didn’t bargain for.
With the football season coming to end shortly, we are unsure of what the club owners will do in the future and this is of particular concern for the National but we will of course keep everyone updated and book external caterers if necessary.

Default Catering and Raffle and more

It has been confirmed by the Sports and Social Club that their outdoor catering wagon wont be used again - instead it is going to be repaired and used for storage of football equipment.
They plan to invest in a dedicated catering trailer though that will be stored around the back of the venue and then brought out for events. Naturally, this wont be for this Sunday, so we have taken the decision to do it ourselves. We are going to offer tea, coffee, soup and hot chocolate, then on the food side, toasted sandwiches, chocolate, crisps, and possibly cakes/brownies for those of you who want something to go with a nice cup of tea. So for once, don't bring any food with you as all proceeds from the food will go back into the club/track!

We are starting to build up some great prizes once again to give away in our regular raffle so bring your spare cash.

Finally, we are going to try and get a compressor to use this Sunday. For a small donation, you will be able to use the air line to dust off the cars.

If anyone needs more information or wants to come down, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Hi Andy

We are going to 'borrow' the urn from work but a sandwich toaster would be great! If you can bring it down on Saturday, that would help too...

How are you getting on with the Google Earth drawing of the venue?
If you don't mind printing off about ten copies of the one you did of the track, then Steve and I can plan for marshal points and mark up layouts.

Thanks

Hi Martin

Thanks for the offer off the fridge/freezer but the mains power only gets switched on for race day. If it was a small fridge, then that would have been OK but I think that we will have to let you throw the fridge/freezer away

Bringing your own food and drink is tolerated by the Sports and Social Club. Obviously we are not going to be offering anything that could upset them or conflict with what is on offer in their bar. Discretion is always a advised so please this in mind...

Default what's in the cafe?

Seeing as it is a subject that we are all fond of, we have finalised what food and drinks we will be offering just so you can leave a packed lunch at home and help us at the club.

Drinks:
Pepsi
Diet Coke
7UP
Tango (orange)
tea
coffee
soup
hot chocolate

Food:
chocolate muffins
Twix
Mars
Kit Kat
toasted ham/cheese sandwiches
hot dogs
slices of homemade cake
crisps
apples

Drinks should be available from 8am and we will be making regular announcements with regard to food, etc,

We will be basing the catering in the scrutineering building which will be shared with Roger who will be keeping you all on your toes with transponders...

Finally, don't forget the raffle - I cant wait to see the prizes that DC has got lined up!!!
