Well I hope to see you bright and early to help set up the events out there!
I think it's going to be a great site. It won't have the elevation changes like Price Cutter Park's lot but I look forward to some technical courses and a safe lot.

The next board meeting is January 6th @ 7PM in the back room of Schultz & Dooley's Too on South National in Springfield. Everyone should attend!
Agenda:
Board member positions
Banquet
2009 Solo II Schedule
etc.
I would hope we get our schedule up in the next few weeks (before the end of January, for sure!). St. Louis and Others have already developed theirs.

Craig,
If you want an idea of what the Crowder lot looks like, imagine the ducks stadium and lot if the entire ballpark were also paved.
Bobby,
Board has to approve some things to make it final, but the Duck's events will still take place.
Likely we will have 4 or 5 events at the Duck's Stadium. At Crowder we will have our first, March OMR event, the 2 day Divisional event mid summer, and an OMR fall event. So basically our regular season split between two locations + a Divisional.

Well... I'd say it's just about the same size as the Duck's lot if you count the lower part of the "L". The good news is it's been properly made for Semi Truck Traffic so it won't have holes and crumbled pavement all over the place which gives us
far more flexibility with course designs.
I layed out and rotated the Crowder lot over the Duck's lot so you could get an idea.

GOOD TO SEE THAT WE GOT THE NEOSHSO SITE WOULD LIKE TO THINK THE PEOPLE THAT PULLED THIS OFF. AND HOPE THAT WE CAN KEEP THIS SITE FOR A LONG TIME, THIS LOT HAS CONTROL TOWER IN THE NORTH WEST CORNER PLUS A AREA OF CONCERT IN FRONT OF IT, THE REST IN PAVEMENT

Wow, I'm very excited to see this. I'm in Joplin so Neosho is a much better drive for me.

So is it possible to assume that OMR is talking with Topeka about a Divisional or maybe even a NT at the new site especially with the loss of Lot L in KC?

Yes Ed, We have a 2 day OMR sanctioned MiDiv Divisional scheduled ! Going to be a whole, whole lot of work putting it on. Worth it though as everyone will have a local opportunity to see how they stack up against some seriously fast competition.
Where did you get that awsome shifting emoticon ?

Cool Beans Curtis !
Looks like y'all got a good start for the 2009 Season.
First saw it back on the Solo II forums a few years ago and snagged it.
Here is the link where I have it saved on our website or you can just right click & save it to your pc.
