Club Promo at the Rochester International Auto Show

Club Promo at the Rochester International Auto Show

If the cold hasn’t been nipping at your heels, then how about the anticipation of another race season? It wont be long before we are back on the track! In the meantime, the Genesee Valley Kart Club will be promoting our club and sport at the Rochester International Auto Show. We are still looking for help from our members to pull this event off. From my understanding, those who volunteer their time for a shift (6+ hours) will receive free admission to the show. Specifically, we need help Wednesday night setting up, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday.  Those who are interested in helping, please contact Jeff Stark. So promote our club…promote our sport…and see a free show!

UPDATE – Last race weekend moved to Nov 3rd & 4th

Because of the weather last weekend, we decided to push out the final races of the fall series to this weekend,  November 3rd and 4th. This will be a normal race weekend. Oval races will take place on Saturday followed by road course practice. On Sunday, we will follow racing with track cleanup and closing. As always, the more who participate the quicker and easier we can get it done. Hope to see you there!

**Don’t forget** – please send in your banquet reservations as soon as possible so that we can get numbers to the country club for dinners!
