New England Region to Host Racing Against Leukemia/NER Charities Weekend August 4 & 5

With August fast approaching it’s time to start thinking about how we can raise the most money possible for the charities we are supporting. The Aug. 4-5 weekend should give everyone plenty of choices.

There will be Road Racing, Rally and Solo. All groups will be selling RAL 2012 decals, Breast Cancer decals and cozy’s and Raffle tickets. Look for them at registration and throughout the weekend.

We are also offering the much in demand Hot Laps on the track during lunch Sat. & hopefully Sun.

Time permitting, there will be track rides at day’s end Sat.

For all those Solo drivers and anyone else interested, who want to swap rides, don’t forget the Jeff Gordon Challenge on Saturday, followed by a points event on Sunday.

Saturday afternoon will also feature Round 1 of the DoubleCross, a combined Solo/RallyCross event that concludes on Sunday Morning.

Rally will be running their TSD rally Saturday night and their RallyCross on Sunday.

The on-line first giving site to donate for childhood leukemia research is open at www.firstgiving.com/ummf/nerrace.

In order to make this Raffle the best ever please contact Linda Kogan at lkogan@charter.net or Nick Leverone at Flatout Motorsports if you have any merchandize or services to donate

This is our only fund raising event of the year, so please help us make it a Great Success!

Be sure to check out Danelle Moehring's letter to the region about the origins of RAL, and of course the Region's Racing Against Leukemia Page.

Thank you all and we are hoping for a large turnout for the weekend!
