Your help needed at the November Classic

By Pete Davis , 5 October, 2015

Hi folks

November is rapidly approaching and we need to sort out helpers for the 48th November Classic on Sunday 1st November!

This year the event is centred on Burley. It will involve a walk to the Start.

We need as many Club members as possible to enable us to present our usual high class event. WE NEED YOU!

If you have a preference for job - car parking, enquiries, Start, marshalling, computing, helping around the site or with putting out/collecting controls - please let me know.

First starts are usually around 9.30 and go on until around 1pm.

Once you have sent your offer of help I will then be able to forward the special helpers code for you to use at Fabian4, giving you a half price entry. You will also receive a voucher towards your food to use at Tom's Burger wagon!

Please let me know as soon as possible so you can get your entry in with plenty of time to spare! Email: mary.david.nixon [at] gmail.com (mary[dot]david[dot]nixon[at]gmail[dot]com)

Many thanks

Mary Nixon, on behalf of Nick Bosbury, Organiser
