Terry,
Can we have the championship dates,and hotel info if its ready. Lets everyone pull together and help get this ball rolling. How about the field rep program. This used to be my baby and its gone to waste. If you are interested in being a field rep please get in touch with me @ 724-346-5898 (work) 330-608-4428 cell. I'm not willing to sit back and watch it self destruct. If you are qualified and interested in being on the executive committee I will also take those names and present it to the current board. How about prizes can anyone help in this area. Every year I'm the only one that donates to this cause. We are all members and we do not have to be on the board to make a difference. Also there is going to be a stick race at the Nationals. So dig out the antiques and get em ready. Lets help put NDR back on the right track.

It seems that the NDR has come out of hibernation I,m sure that many people are happy to see that happen And it will probably end up O.K. after all is said and done I liked your comment about a STICK car race, this could be a very interesting race I wonder what rules they plan to go by because there have been so many changes I'm certain that they will work it out .It will be ,I think a very hard race to win but it will be an exciting one to watch .I really hope they get a great response for their efforts

Webmaster assistance -

My understanding there was an offer to help with the NDR website from one of the Salem, OR group - but as of yet - no one has contacted them.

Just thought it needs to be mentioned. I know there are many people waiting for updates - all anyone has to do is ask.

TRACK B , I sent an E-mail to the person in Salem,OR. I need his phone number to speak with him. We have had a couple of other people wanting to learn how to do updates as well and help us out. I have to take all of this information to the NDR board and let them approve of who and what is to be done. I want to get this fixed as much as every NDR member. Thanks Terry

Terry - his number as well as his e-mail address should be on the Salem SBD website - he's the assistant director - NDR rallies. Hope he can help out. Really good guy.
