HI Everyone,
My name is Tim Royer, your new Time Trials Chairman. I just wanted to introduce myself and share with you some announcements that you may be interested in. I recently moved into NEPA region from the Blue Mountain Region where I was an active member and on the board. I’m also the event organizer for the Spring Jefferson “Time Trials.” For those of you who have not heard, the SCCA is no longer using the name “Solo1.” Yeah, they went and changed the name on us. “Solo1” is now “Time Trials.” There are more changes for 2005 to the ex-Solo1 program besides simply the name change. Watch this spot for more information.

The first meeting of the Giants Despair Hill Climb Association is on March 5th at the Laurel Run Fire Company in the Council meeting room at 2pm. This is for anyone wishing to help in setting up and running the event. Members, we need you!

This year, the NEPA region is looking into having a “Workers Series” for NEPA hosted Time Trials (there are now 5). Besides the possibility of cash, prizes, or both to be handed out to workers for each event, each worker will also acquire points for working. Then, at the end of the year, we are looking into a “Worker Series Banquet.” Details and guidelines still need to be worked out so stay tuned! To start things off, I’ll even give everyone who shows up to the Giants Association meeting 1 point! And if you bring another person along with you, I’ll give you 2 points toward year end award! If you have never worked at a corner station in a race (that’s how I got my start), you don’t know what you’re missing. Any questions, feel free to email me.-Tim Royer (Time Trials)
