TRACK NOTICE BOARD
Well, look no further… From now on, there will now be a whiteboard at the track to announce club activities, races, social events, coaching/official courses – and everything in between!
So keep an eye out when you’re at the track on what’s coming up – and feel free to add to the board with your own items.
