[CC-ARES-RACES] Doncaster Race Saturday/Competitive Trail Ride Sunday

[cc-ares-races@mailman.qth.net]

Hello Everyone,

     This will be the final reminder (I promise!) about the Doncaster 50-mile race and Competitive Trail Ride for this coming Saturday (tomorrow, 21st) and Sunday (22nd). 

     If you would like to participate and would like the free breakfast it is recommended that you plan on arriving around 5:30AM. Talk-in will be on the W3BPT (146.85 MHz) repeater. 

Remember to bring the following:

A. Radio and extra batteries/battery packs
B. Lawnchair or something COMFORTABLE to sit on.
C. Watch/clock or other timepiece
D. Clipboard
E. Reading material
F. Cooler with drinks/water and/or munchies to tide you over till the evening meal
G. Flashlight (those mornings are kind of dark!)

There will be porta-johns (handicapped accessible) at the farm. 

Directions (from La Plata): Head east on RTE. 6 for about 15 miles. Remember that the road narrows after Welcome so allow plenty of time for travel. Once past Ironside watch for RTE. 344. Make a right turn on RTE. 344. Go approximately 1 mile and watch for Reverdy Farms Road on the left. (It should be well marked.) Follow the road in about 1 mile. You notice the horse trailers (and aroma of horses-watch your step!). After breakfast we'll all have assignments somewhere along the trail.

I'll be attending the pre race/ride briefing tonight at 7:00PM (1900L). Anyone else who would like to attend is welcome.

Please email or call (301)-934-1878 with any further questions.
I look forward to seeing a lot of you this weekend!
