CREW CALENDAR

This page is a private page for the Namron Racing Team's crew. This has the current "to do" lists for both the UL-10 and the E-10. Under no circumstances are our crew days mandatory! The times listed are "WAGs" -- the first crew member to properly identify what WAG means earns a prize (We've got lots of cake and goodies left over -- never said it was going to be a good prize!). If you can only come out for an hour -- rather than three hours, we appreciate any time you can spare. I'll say this over and over again, this is supposed to be FUN for everyone. I do not expect, nor do I recommend that you try and make every crew day. This sport can be very demanding on family time -- even though to me this is a very, very family-friendly sport. So keep the families happy first and foremost. Below is the current "To Do" list. I'll try and keep a detailed list up the week prior. I'll update it after the crew day and remove or continue a project depending on what we accomplish. It could be we only accomplish one project on the "To Do" list on a crew day. There are times when we might not accomplish any. But those times will just even out the days when we just kick ass!!!

When you are about 5 minutes from the airport, call me at 360-801-1626 and let me know you're by the main gate and we'll have someone come and get you. Thanks for everything!
