Now hopefully you all know that Dromara CC are running a cyclo-cross race on Sunday 6 November 2011 at Moira Demesne.
Naturally we will need a big turn out of club members to help put on a great race.
Off the top of my head we'll need
Set up crew [7am - 10]
Sign on team [9am - 1 pm]
Marshals [10:30 - 2 pm]
Catering team [11am - 3pm]
Clean up squad [2pm - 3:30 pm]
Can you post here if you can help out?
I'm also looking for any old carpet you might have. If you can cut it into lengths 3 metres wide that would be perfect. I'll sort out getting it dumped afterwards.

Actually - Looking at the start time for setting up, just stick me down to marshall. I'll race Ormeau Park on my franken bike instead.

Outline of what we have to do on Sunday. Set up the big gazebo + the 3 smaller gazebos. Set up tables, lay out sign on sheets and man the sign on tent. Set up 1.5 miles of course, fully poled and taped with signage / arrows. Set up jumps, banners, flags Sort out car parking Get PA trailer in place and first aiders into position. All ready for riders to practice on the course and for the first race at 10:40. We then have to sort out the catering, lay out the food, sort out hot food and serve tea/coffee all day and soup etc after the races finish. Then after 2:30 we got to take it all down, pack up, clean up and go home. It's going to be busy. So if you can spare some time please come along and help out.  |

Final appeal for helpers Also a reminder that if you have any old carpet, we could do with some. Also, if you are racing, please pre-register before 9 pm tonight to help save time on the day. Looks like it might be a dry weekend. |
