Breaking News / Coming events


2013 Track Rebuild

During the weekends of 12th/13th January and 19th/20th January we will be conducting a major overhaul of the track and treatment of the track surface. If you are able to volunteer time on any of these days it would be very much appreciated, but particularly on the 19th & 20th as this is the weekend that the major building and finishing will be carried out.

The plan is to remove the ag pipe and AstroTurf on the first Saturday, dig up the flat areas of the track and begin the track treatment on the first Sunday, then do the rebuild and finishing touches on the following weekend. That's the plan, but these things can change, depending on how much gets done and how many people turn up.
