TALK, TALK, TALK...make sure everyone you know is
aware of this event! I will bring extra event fliers
to the Wednesday Night racing so people can take them
to friends, co-workers, etc!

HOST HOUSING:
A big thank you to those of you who have already
responded. Please still let me know if you have any
room for riders or know anyone in the Rochester area
who has room and may be willing to house some
riders...I have had a few more riders request space
and may be able to use more homes. Thanks.

VOLUNTEERS:
Within the next day I will have a list compiled of
things we need volunteers for and send out an email
regarding just that!...all of your help is greatly
appreciated.

MEDIA:

I hope everyone got a chance to see the article that
was in the paper last Friday...Kim did a nice job.

Fox 2 News and Lila Lazarus came out to the track
yesterday and took a few shots...Once I find out from
Lila I will let you know when that will be on air.

PLEASE PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE UPDATES OVER THE
NEXT FEW WEEKS...the U.S. NAS-TRACK 3 Day Madison
Tournament and its continuation could be a huge part
of bringing cycling back to popularity as a spectator
sport. We all owe it to the sport to help make this
event the best it can be!!!

Take Care,
