www.mra-racing.org/pdf/2006_CornerCrewSchedule.pdf

--Show time is 6:30 am each day (Please be on time)

The Pueblo track always provides an exciting show as the bikes get to run wide open on the 2.25 mile course.

--- We need all of you at Pueblo! ---
Due to the longer length and open spaces of the track at Pueblo we really need maximum participation at these events. The extra distance between turns makes it critical that all corners be fully staffed.

Remember:

--You can get hotel reimbursement for Friday and Saturday Night
(More Lodging information is below.)

-- Lunch will be provided.

-- Directions to the track are listed below.

RSVP:
Please reply and let me know whether (or not) you will be able to attend this week's event.

As always, bring your friends!!

And of course, don't hesitate to call or email me if you have any questions.

Thanks for volunteering!

Hope to see all of you at the track!!

Directions to Pueblo Motorsports Park:

From I-25, take US-50 (Exit 101) Go West about 2.7 miles to the intersection with Pueblo Boulevard (Route 45), then take Pueblo Boulevard south about 1/3 mile. (it's just a bit past the intersection)

The track entrance is on the west side of the road just past the small 'Motorola' building. You must have a certain amount of faith, since there is nothing visible except the (paved) access road and a steel archway. Stay on the paving and follow the access road around and up and down (continued faith is required) about 1.5 miles to the road course entrance.

Lodging Information:

To make it easier to be there early inthe morning, you may wish to stay in Pueblo on Friday and/or Saturday night. There are a couple of options:

1) You may camp in the pit area at the track for free.

2) If you wish to stay in a hotel/motel, the MRA will reimburse each person $35 for lodging on Friday or Saturday night if you work the following day. If you share a room with a one or two people this should cover your expenses.
