To ALL RC Clubs & Officials
Hi Herts(Herts-Nitro-Model-Club)
The sport is facing some very difficult times, as part of the wider sporting community we are required to do our bit to help contain the spread of the virus by limiting the social gatherings that are the core of what we do.
Hence the Association Executive has had to take the following steps
Today:-
ALL our Association events (i.e. all our Nationals and Regionals) that should have been happening between Now until the end of April will either be Postponed or Cancelled.
Please look out for announcements from the sections concerned as they get this resolved, please allow them the time to get this done as it's expected that trying to adjust the calendar at this time of the year will be difficult.
We Recommend that All Clubs do likewise and close for the same period of time.
While we appreciate that this is difficult to do and will have financial implications for some clubs it is not a decision that the Executive have taken lightly.
While we can only advise you to do so and ultimately it's each Clubs decision to follow this advice, or not, we do believe that this is the responsible course of action to take and so it's recommended that Clubs close until the end of April, but with a plan in place to recommence when we can.
There will be separate email, containing the same information, going to the entire Membership this evening..
Massive thanks to the track prep team and all the racers for a great meeting.
Regards
Darren Newton
