[NCNCA] 2007 race scheduling meeting

[Casey Kerrigan]

The 2007 race scheduling meeting will take place on Nov. 13th. The  
location will in in Burlingame, most likely at the Burlingame  
community center, the same location as last year's meeting. The  
meeting will start at 7pm the same as the regular NCNCA meeting.

We will shortly have the 2007 date request form available so  
promoters can start sending in their date requests to Tom Simonson  
our calendar coordinator. Until the date request form is available  
promoters should start pulling together their information for next  
year with the date you would prefer ( also any secondary dates in  
case your primary date  has other events who want/need that day)  
contact Info for the promoter or person who can deal with date  
scheduling issues, race name, location and any special notes about  
your race ( like juniors only or no Cat 4s or 5s etc).

If everyone gets their information into Tom before the meeting it  
will make the meeting go smoother and faster.

since we have more and more clubs interested in holding races we have  
more races than weekend days in our normal race season. As was the  
case this year we will probably have dates where more than one race  
will be held on the same day. with over 3,800 riders in the region  
there are more than enough riders to support two ( or more) races on  
the same day. Heck we currently have over 2,000 riders who are either  
Cat 4 or Cat 5  so we could have a couple of successful races on the  
same day that just catered to Cat 4s and 5s.

In the past one thing that has set Nor Cal apart from several other  
regions is the willingness of various promoters to work with each  
other  to make for a pretty smooth scheduling process each year.  
Hopefully that tradition will continue again this year.
