Ready and willing to help out when I can. I have spoke to the boss at work and can get timber, turf, slabs, tools, paint at good prices depending on what we need. Heck I went through our recycling and disposal bins recently and got a £120 compressor for only £2, nowt up with it.

There were going to be community grants given out again this year for various local groups and clubs but the budget has been scrapped in favour of 'youth projects' (whatever they are) If someone can get me a list of stuff we'll be needing i'll get on it.

The council will always want to do things on the cheap, the thing is, not that I'm saying you should do anything dodgy, but how do they know how much setting up an rc track should cost, plus, if something's not done properly, it more often than not needs redoing over and over again.

They know because they ask what we need and get quotes.

Basically the new track is on the other side of race control, and rotated 90 degrees to the current one (unless its all been changed again).
We can then park in the main car park instead of driving around all the footballers blocking the road!

Can we still have a covered/indoor pitting area for people who don't have a vehicle to hide from the rain in?!
