2009 ALS Charity Race
 
EVERYONE,

Back from the dark shadows of the global economy a light emerges...

Just a quick note that we are begining the planning for this year's event. I know the economy will be turned around by October so I expect the usual list of insane prizes.

Venue may change but track will remain huge (unless you are a weak 1/18th scale driver).:D

Wow... I can finally call my stock broker and let him know to get busy!

j/k

See you there, as I'm sure everyone who has attended once, will more than likely be there again! (how could they not!)

If you are reading this thread and have not attended this awesome event for an incredible cause... and you're a MiniZer within driving distance, there's probably something really wrong with you and you should seek psychiatric attention very soon! ;)

I hope its not October 10th! I tried to drop you a PM a while back to try and make sure I didnt step on your date, but scheduled our enduro for the 10th after not hearing from you. If it can slide two weeks later than that, Im sure we can drag some MB guys up there :D

Glad to hear you're doing this event again this year...I'm going to do my best to make it out and bring along a 'couple' of friends

I'm soo bummed I missed this race last year - it was a shame there was another 'big' race going on at Mimi's that same weekend:rolleyes:

Hope it is not October 10th!
 
Hey Russ,

I hope the event is towards the end of the month! I had a great time last year it was definately an awesome event. Since the event my wife has actually become involved an ALS walk in my area. Thought you might like to know that this is direct result of my attandence at your event.

Anyway hopefully the stars will be aligned correctly and I will be able to attend.

MBMZR er's.

There are two options we are considering.

1. Previous location at Bowles Fluidics Corp, 6625 Dobbin Rd, Columbia, MD 21045

2. New location at Ark and Dove Presbyterian Church, Piney Orchard Pkwy, Odenton, MD 21113

The #1 is given, but #2 facility will be much better for everyone involved so long as we can confirm power supply for all the chargers. I am hoping #2 works out becuase it will continue to raise the bar for the event.

We will finalize it next week and send out registration fliers.
