An E-mail from one of the students...

Hello,

My name is DeAnna Ward and I attended the Grattan track day today.  I was wondering who was taking pictures today.  I saw the guy at the bus stop and I'd love to get some of those pictures.  If you could let me know I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks! 

I really enjoyed today and learned a ton.  Especially in the classroom sessions.  Thank you for a wonderful day!!!  One thing, next time could you turn up the heat?  lol

Special Thanks to the Can Do Safety Crew. Again this year, they took care of the track during the fifteen track-sessions. Penny Bulmer taught the class in garage 2 that informed the students about the meaning of the flags and hand signals used by the safety crew during any and all track sessions, whether during this school and any racing activities.

DON'T FORGET GRATTAN RACEWAY AND THE ENTIRE STAFF.

 SPECIAL THANKS TO E.J. and SAM.
