Re: MRA Wish List
Hi everyone!
I mentioned at last night's general meeting that the MRA has a small (ok, pretty big) list of items that we need to take care of for our safety crew / truck. Some of you may have these items around and may be willing to donate them to the cause. Here is a list of things we need to secure throughout the season to keep our safety equipment up to date.
If you have any of these things and are willing to donate them please contact me, Tim Young or Tony Baker and let us know the best way for us to get them from you.
I've broken down the list below in what I think are like categories, this should make it easier to view.
Thank you very much
Scott
