Hang in there! & take it easy!

Greg brought this new car out last Thursday.

Driven by Kirk Douglass no less!

Beau Frazier has also signed up for the Track Set Up.

We have the two volunteers we need but if anyone else would like to join us you would be most welcomed and appreciated! Alternates are always a good idea as well!

Our team still needs a minimum of two volunteers to sign up. We have not had anyone officially sign up yet. I have received some "maybe" replies from a couple folks. One of the options is for Track Set Up from 5:30 am to 9:00 am. Below is the information that was sent to us by the derby officials. It includes a link to the volunteer sign up form. Please let me know if you decide to sign up.

Thanks!   ========Bill

Subject: Soapbox Derby Volunteer Position Registration

Hello Racers,

Derby is coming up quickly! We hope you’re having fun with your builds. We have a lot going on ourselves improving derby again this year. There are a lot of changes that we hope makes a safe course for all of you which should enable everyone to have a great time.

Every year some race teams have a hard time filling an all-day volunteer position. We are lining both sides of the track with snow fencing which means twice the work. All Hands On Track is necessary so I would like to offer all of our race teams to provide 2 volunteers for track set up and be done by before start. Get it done and get out! Both positions will be from 5:30am – 9am. This way all of your friends can participate in your day of derby in the pits.

I have emailed the volunteers you listed on registration but if you would get on the horn and make sure they are on the same page if you are wanting them to use this 2 volunteer position I would appreciate it.

***Please make sure your volunteer has your Team Name and #. I have attached a registry of all race teams to help.

Also: Lyft is a new sponsor this year any new app downloaded using our code SOAPBOX16 will get free ride credit and derby gets $10. Share it with your friends! Everyone needs a free ride home from time to time.

Thanks,
Darcie

You're welcome Rico! The "Season In The Toilet" award was a combined member effort. I can't take credit for the trophy itself as Bryan Trachsel is responsible for the design and build. My part was knowing what the suitable application and reward was for said trophy. In this case I think it was 100% on the mark! I really wish you could have made the Shoot Out! You had earned your spot with a great run in the 2016 NASTE Point Series Championship!

Hello All,

  I am looking for two people to be volunteers for the PDX Adult Soapbox Derby on Saturday, August 20, 2016. Each team is required to have two volunteers to help with track setup and/or the actual running of the race. A team volunteer signs up for "Track Set Up" from 5:30 A.M. to 9:00 A.M.  Again our team is required to have TWO voluteers for track set up.

Each volunteer will be provided with a 2016 Soapbox T-shirt, Grub, Beer/Cider and VIP entrence to our award ceramony at Chopsticks on Sandy and a super big Thank You from Portland Adult Soap Box Derby!

And of course you will be helping out our team, as well as receiving the extreme gratitude of the NASTE Gravity Racing Team!

Please let me know if you are interested!   ==========Bill

I spent some time today working on T-Jets with Dave Smith. I've been playing with these things for over 50 years and I can't believe all that I learned about them and making them handle just today! Thanks Dave!

Chris, I'm good with the 6th. Marked my big paper with the squares and numbers and days of the week!
