well the race is over
Congratulations to Hellrazor on winning another Barrie Beehag in a record time of 23:23.15.
It was great to see the crowds on the banks of the river at Deep Creek and along the river enjoying the racing.
I hear (but did not see) the mankinis on display - can't wait for the photos.
Great to see many records smashed - congrats to Sportspage, BL Marine, Petty Cash & Ace Racing (all in MOC). SMOC Kaned it and Stalker broke records. Breakaway was the record holder.
Well time to sit down for a meal.
Thanks to the competitors for a great days racing
PS I think I might have to revisit the average KMS per hour - I think I got them wrong, but will do tomorrow.

Only 3 1/2 Days to go
Well everyone, the time has arrived, the Barrie Beehag Ski Race is only 3 !/2 days away. I'm now getting the calls from crews frantically trying to find Skiers or Observers. Plus the calls from disappointed crews whose boats are not ready to go or broke down at the point score on the weekend.
Programs are now out in the Newsagents and everyone should now have their race numbers.

1 week 2 go
Numbers went out in the mail this week.
Thanks to those who read their briefing sheet & found the errors. A new briefing sheet should be in the mail on Monday.
There are still about 120 people that haven't paid their SRA memberships, hopefully they will be paid up by Monday.
Yesterday we had fun packing all the showbags for the kids to purchase at the Barrie Beehag. Great value for $5.
Thats all for now Betty.

Processing Race Numbers
Well today is the day!
I'm taking a break from folding and stuffing envelopes to notify teams of their race numbers. Boy it can be tiring - as many members still don't seem to be members of SRA yet! Hopefully they will not be ringing SRA the week of the race, to pay their memberships!!!
So in the snail mail tomorrow your race numbers should arrive (depending on Australia Post).
We have not done email notifications this time, as many team captains did not provide their email addresses.
Till another day
Betty
