On May 27th, Rockport Off-Road Park will be holding a Women's Competition to raise money for the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. I am a mammographer and have seen first hand many, many times lives and hopes destroyed because of this terrible illness. I hope that we can raise a lot of money for this cause while having a good time.
For simplicity, we are aiming this to be a Rockcrawling Competition based on the RROCK rules and vehicle requirements.
http://www.rorp.com/Events/2006/RROCK/index.htm $100/entry for all classes. Women are encouraged to seek sponsorship for their entry fees.
I'm asking the radiology group that I work for and also the hospital that I work for to contribute my entry fee and possible other contributions to the fund.
All entry fees, raffle prize money and spectator fees will go to the foundation. Women will be allowed a male spotter if they choose and also a "pit crew" for possible repairs.(This would be a good thing for the shops to get involved in).
We want all participants to have fun and feel great about helping with this cause!
RORP will be providing both the driver and the spotter a special event tshirt, that's why shirt sizes are asked for.
If you want to compete, but do not feel comfortable actually competing in one of the regular RROCK classes or do not have a vehicle that meets the requirements, please write OTHER on the form and then go ahead and give us your vehicle specs. We are going to set-up very mild courses to allow as much participation as possible. Even in this mild class, Helmets and a cage that protects the driver will be necessary.
The event flyer and entry form are now on the website.Any help getting flyers out and/or passing the info along to possible raffle prize donors would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thanks,
Debbie
