Check your D36 membership cards – does your membership expire 10/05 ?

As per earlier posted notices – there weren’t any October renewal notices mailed out, due to an equipment failure.

If your membership expires 10/31/05 you have two options left – renew online using a credit card (go to D36 Info/Join/Register On-line with your credit card (fastest response), or renew your membership at the next race you attend. (You will need to allow extra time in the sign up lines and have extra checks or cash with you to do so.)

Having an actual receipt with you is the only way you can verify to the sign up crew that your membership has been renewed and is current. If you are inadvertently allowed to race on an expired membership, there are penalties – refer to the D36 rule book.

There is not enough processing time left for you to print a blank application and mail it in. Going to an event and claiming the “But, I mailed it in” excuse is not valid – you must have a receipt or actual current membership card in your possession at sign ups. Again, do not print the blank application and mail it in, it is too late – you will have no receipt to prove you renewed your membership. If you don’t have your membership card or valid receipt with you at sign ups, you will be required to buy another membership – either a one-day $10 one, or a full $30 one.

District 36 will be the home of the Opening round of both the National HS and National Enduro Series. The Quicksilver Enduro will be on Feb 19th, and the Hollister National will be on the weekend of 2/25. More news to come as the dates approach.

Unfortunately the 49er Enduro has been cancelled for 2005. Let’s all hope they are able to run in 2006!
