The second reason would be I guess as increased exposure for the club and hopefully that would result in increased membership.
Perhaps more importantly it is a way of again putting of value back to the membership which has and always will be the ethos of this club, - it is for the members. I can see the events as being a great focus of involvement for not just those that are racing but for those members like me who would love to turn up (what a great family day out it could be) and watch and feel part of what was happening on track. |
I agree Ian, as long as the membership growth is secondary thats fine, "value back into the membership" would be my key hope for this - but I also take Lizzie's point about ensuring a full grid too and needing to be accomodating of potential new members who would help fill these up (if necessary).
