Seeing folks registered eases the anxiety of the Chief Steward as well as of our Flag Chief.

If you know of a driver who is not instructing, twist their arm and bring them along. We can always use more folks on the turns.
Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.
Looking forward to seeing you at Roebling Road as we start our racing year.
Thanks in advance,
Bob
April is Autism Awareness Month
One in every 160 births result in a child stricken with Autism. Last April, the Solo folks had an autox at Deland dedicated to raising funds to fight this childhood affliction. Young children diagnosed as autistic have trouble speaking, understanding the spoken word, communicating with others, have emotional issues and/or lack social skills with varying degrees. Some, with early intervention, may eventually be able lead a “normal” life while others will always need special care. It is a heart-wrenching problem for a family to deal with.
The reason this happens to our children is still a mystery. The doctors and researchers just do not know. However, with properly directed and increased funding, perhaps in the near future a reason as to why this happens to our children will be found and the yet unborn will be spared. Then, maybe, a cure will follow.
This year the CFR will dedicate our April 19th event at Geneva to fighting Autism. We will again ask for donations to Autism Speaks - the national organization in the forefront of this battle - from our competitors and non-participants.
Last year, we were able to raise a total of $1,490.00. This year we are hopeful that we can increase that donation to Autism Speaks. We will again be giving “rides” for those that would be willing to donate to the cause.
Please join us on April 19th at Geneva.
