March 6-8, 2009 Texas Two Step Double National

THANKS FOR A VERY SUCCESSFUL EVENT!


HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wow its 2009 already, damn you're getting old or should I say seasoned. Speaking of seasons, its time we start the racing season. Again this year Lone Star Region is hosting two races, a double national in early March and our Grand Prix on Memorial Day weekend. We desperately tried to put an enduro together, but after date issues with TWS, Eagles Canyon, NASA, and NASCAR, we just couldn't make it viable. Next year we'll give it another shot. If any of you can give us a hand with ideas and organizational skills, it's never too early to start putting an enduro together. To make it happen next year we need to start thinking about it now and we WILL need your help to be successful!

A couple more quick items: Pay attention to our website for for details on upcoming events. All we need now is for you to come out to our events and bring a friend or three. If they're interested, we'll plug them in to the event and they can see how much fun you've been having all these years! To get real close to the action contact Brent at bmcnaul@aol.com and he'll put you or your friend or both of you on a corner spittin distance from the track. How cool is that!

See ya at the track,
Danny Benzer RE

The Executive Board of the Lone Star Region needs you to help us help you. Racing costs continue to increase, and those costs directly affect entry fees. The region's board, officers and race chairmen are actively engaged in scrutinizing racing costs for reduction opportunities, and are developing alternative race formats that will have inherent savings in terms of sanction fees, insurance costs, etc.

The other opportunity to contain entry fees will come from alternative revenue sources - race sponsors, to be specific. We represent an attractive demographic group, and need to exploit that by finding businesses that would like focused access to it. Opportunities for custom crafted sponsor / promotion packages, at both the 'naming sponsor' and 'supporting sponsor' level, are unlimited.

How do you help? One of three ways:

1. Contact someone on the Executive Board (see "Contact info" on ./) with suggestions for potential sponsors. Include 'decision maker' contact information.

2. Show up at an Executive Board meeting and volunteer to lead or participate on a sponsor / promotion / marketing committee to help craft attractive custom packages for potential race sponsors.

3. Sign on as a race sponsor, and tell us what we can do to make the most of the opportunity for you. Promotional visibility, on site presence -- you name it and we can work together to make it happen.

Racing has only one winner -- but race sponsorship can be win / win.
