| Eric Saunders Auction: |
| Auction update: The auction for Eric has
had a great response! So far we have 2 new helmets, 2 complete new
outfits, a 4-wheeler rack, and much more! We originally planned a
silent auction, but have decided to go with a traditional auction,
which will take place at intermission on Sunday. Remember, all the
money this auction brings in, will go directly to Eric and his family.
A huge "Thank You"
goes out to everyone who has so generously donated items to the auction!
We are currently looking for an auctioneer who would be willing to
donate their services at the auction. If you are interested please
contact Carol or Lori

| Eric Saunders
Suffers Serious Injury |
|
 |
| Update: |
| Mikey Klinger spoke with Irish Saunders,
Eric's Father, this afternoon. Eric underwent surgery yesterday
August 29. His spine was broken at T5. Right now Eric has no
feeling below his waist. Eric was in good spirits last night
after surgery but did suffer a set back this morning. Eric was
having trouble breathing, and Doctors discovered a build up
in his lungs, and that only 1 lung was working. Doctors were
able to get both lungs working and Eric is expected to be transfered
out of ICU as early as tomorrow if his condition remains stable.
Please continue to keep Eric and his family in your thoughts
and prayers. |
| Reads Racing would like to help
Eric anyway we can. This weekend we will hold various fundraising
activities for Eric. 100% of all fund raisnig monies collected
will go to Eric and his family. On Sunday we will have a silent
Auction. We are currently in search of items for the auction.
If you have an item that you can donate to the auction, it does
not have to be motocross related, please contact Lori at (574)
893-1649 from 7:30am
to 3:00pm or e-mail to readsracing@yahoo.com
We will also have stickers with Eric's number available for
sale, and will be doing a 50/50 drawing. 100% of all monies
collected will be given to Eric and his family. More information
will be posted as it becomes available so keep checking back. |

of old faces on this evening so we've scheduled a Hog Roast
on the same night as well. Come on out and do some bench racing
and tell your favorite Joyce and Larry stories. |

During the riders meeting we will expain procedures and this is also
a chance for you to ask questions. |
| |
| We want everyone to
have fun so here are a few rules, so we can all get along! |
| |
1. |
|
Be courteous to your
weekend neighbors. |
| |
2. |
|
Pets are welcome but
must be kept on short leashes. |
| |
3. |
|
Pit Vehicles are permitted
but are a privelege, and can be confiscated if not used properly.
Parents - young kids should not be turned loose on Golf Carts,
Rangers, Mules, etc. Common Sense is the rule. If they can't
drive a car, they shouldn't drive one of these vehicles. Idle
speed only allowed in the pit area. |
| |
4. |
|
Theft will not be tolerated,
including theft of Banners or hay bale covers. It is not a prank
or joke, it is a crime. It is stealing. The police will be called
and if the responsible party is caught we will press charges.
Riders and their pit crew should always conduct themselves in
a responsible respectful manner. |

| 2K10 Series
Announcements |
| Don't forget there have been some
big changes in this year's Reads Racing Program. One of the
biggest was the Splitting of the Reads Racing Summer Series
into two seperate series. Reads Racing announced this winter
the formation of the,... |
| AMA
District 15 Premier Summer Series & Northern Indiana All
Star Championship Series |
| These 2 series do not combine for
1 total points tally. Each series will be awarded individual
awards at the end of the season banquet. The only combination
of the 2 series will be for a #1 Plate for each class. The #1
plate winner will be awarded based on combined points totals
from the two series. |
| Our hope is to allow more riders
to be able to remain competitive throughout the season and earn
a Year End Award. You can pick 1 series to run, or try to earn
points in both and take home 2 Championships. If you have any
questions please call us at (574) 893-1649. |
