Anker Valley this Sunday 26th April
Just a reminder that this Sunday is the Anker Valley (near Nuneaton) Hasler race. This is a Midlands regional race at which we need to field a team and give it our best shot to ensure that we maintain (or improve) our place in the club league table. Just to remind you we are currently 8th and only the top 8 teams go to the hasler finals so there is currently NO margin for slippage. Over the rest of the summer we really need club members out on the water performing as well as we can.
You can register on the day if you must, but it would be helpful if you can let Deb know if you’re racing or not before Friday so that she can put the race entry in on Friday evening

Race admin stuff
Please remember that:
1. If you want to race for the club (and we *really* want you to do so, then you must have renenewed your membership by then (or else you’ll have to race as an independent which doesn’t win the club any points).
2. You need to have comprehensive membership of the BCU to race (or you can buy a day ticket if you are in div 7 and below, but only once each season)
3. You need to be wearing club colours - most of the race team have their own, but we have a number of club vests if you need to borrow one. Please let us know *before* Sunday morning.
