The 25th Anniversary of "The Motorway Classic" is well and truly in countdown mode.
This week we have receive stocks of spot prizes that we ordered specially for the event and we've lined up some other prizes that are flying in from Australia as we speak plus and we continue our ongoing support arrangement with Fergs Kayaks...who have always supporting the events we Organise.....so we in turn do some work for them.
This week I've been out to check out the venue, 2 x lots of toilet facilities and where the local mobile food and coffee carts sit.....more on those next week.
Logistically we've upgraded much of the equipment we've had in the past....I'm sure everyone will notice the changes on the day of the event......people are being e-mailed about the event a number of Clubs are posting the Event on their Websites and Facebook pages which is just awesome.
For this to come together it does require a huge team effort and to tell you the truth the support will comes from all quarters...if one word was to epitomise this event it be ENCOURAGEMENT..... and plenty of it to you mates to turn up
Here's an article that we've just had posted on Sportzhub http://www.sportzhub.com/news/25-th-anniversary-motorway-classic/
