Is anyone a CAMS Accredited Official? Are you interested in becoming one?

[red900ss]

I have posted this in NSW General to catch the attention of as many of you as possible.

We are starting to organise Club events and require Stewards, Marshalls etc. If you think you'd like to get involved with the Club and help out at these events (as opposed to competing) please let me know.

Right now we are after those of you;

a) who are already qualified, or,

B) who would be interested in the roles.

The information about CAMS Accreditation and Officials Categories can be found here.

Right now we desperately need to hear from anyone who is already accredited. Please PM/email me if you can help out, even if you are not a member.

Thanks from the Exec Committee.

I am definatly interested in doing an officials course of some kind and would like to possibly get a list of names and we might be able to organise a group buy... I mean a group of us could all go and do it together... you know so that we have people to do it with etc...

As Dino said... look into the Cams website as linked above for more info.

[PranK]

yeah, D, i want to become an official as well..

[red900ss]

cool...keep 'em coming. I guess it would be done in a group anyway.

[B-Man]

Do they accept troublemakers ??? If so , I'm interested (time permitting)

Cheers,

[Merli]

How much is it to sit the course and do the training?

[red900ss]

Merli, maybe $10 for tea and sandwiches etc. The course is no charge. Even better, you usually get fed and watered when you go along to another club to act as a volunteer (for the 3 day under supervision bit).

All of you who are interested go here , download the Pack and send off the form to Melbourne.

Post here where you are at.

I am yet to find out more about the courses.

[Duncan]

Yeah, Ill probalby give stewarding a go.

As a free plug, I've done a day as a flag marshall when I got my national circuit license, and it was a top way to get up close to motorsport if you don't want to/can't compete directly.

[Kel]

I'm keen too

[Tosh]

I'll suss out the details from that link and let u know Dino

[Majanal]

Ok, If anyone can help out a fellow Nissan Club then please Contact Graham from the Nissan Datsun Drivers Club as listed below.

Hi Daniel,

Pity your TRE(Touring Road Event) is that weekend, otherwise I would have offered to be your B3 Steward. I am involved as the CAMS Event Checker for the 2GO Rally at Wyong, which is a round of the State Championship.

...

Just on another note if any of your members could help with a road closure or control on the 2nd August at Batemans Bay they would be most welcomed. they could contact myself on  

0409 126 308, as we are a little short on officials.

I'm interested in becoming an offical.

I sussed out the details a while ago and got my 'Trainee's' License, but apart from that it kinda took a back seat.

[red900ss]

Welcome aboard Endorean. The need for officials for the upcoming Mystery Rally has been circumvented. However we still need people to get involved for future events.

Shall be in touch.

[Endorean]

I"ll defenitley be interested for future events.

I'll have to dig around for the info about becoming an offical and post it for all.

I think that being an offical also takes care of the track duties that competiters need to do in order for them to get their C3 licence.

[Duncan]

yeah, I did some flagging for my C3 license, it was actually top fun. Was it flagging that you were doing Endorean? and did you get a chance to go to some meets?

[Endorean]

I was scheduled to do some flagging but work commitments pushed the duties to a back seat.

I've been wanting to get back into it, cause I want to get my C3 license as well.

Just finding the time is the problem. and in some cases, the dosh.... :-)

Subject: Bathurst Hill Climb

Hello,

You may remember our club from the recent CAMs state council meeting at Lithgow Workmans Club when Skylines Australia was given affiliation. Your club was there also as it is the 50th annerversary of your club.

I was looking over the Cams Website and noticed that you are holding a Hill Climb at Mt Panorama and I was wondering if some of our guys might be able to come along and watch. I know that it is probably too late to enter... and possibly too late for us even to come out there... but I know of at least one member that is really keen to have a go at this event one year as am I.

We will be organising some non-competitive events soon but at this stage we are looking to get along and help out at events like yours to firstly gain experience from a club that has been operating for such a long time and also to gain some official accreditations for some of our members.

Hopefully we will meet in the near future,

Dan Mackie

Events Co-ordinator

Skylines Australia - NSW

Might be a bit late... but if your going and want to get involved then let me know ASAP.

Hey Dan, what was the date of the hillclimb at Bathurst? Is this the one in the last weekend of november, or something before then?

[red900ss]

I guess it's this one on 10/08/03. I can't make it.
