If you are not going to the Solo school or Solo on 3/15-16 and are interested in knowing how to deal with emergency fire rescue situations on track, check this out:

2008 Crash And Burn School
(Fire Rescue School)
March 15 - 16,2008
North Washington Fire Department Training Facility
901 East 68th Avenue, Denver

Each year we try to make a training session available to all our members prior to the start of our road racing season, enabling us to renew and sharpen our skills in Fire Rescue situations. This year we plan to combine our training with the excellent program sponsored by Rocky Mountain Vintage Racing. It will be held at the North Washington Fire Department Training Facility, 901 East 68th Avenue, on March 15 and 16th . Professionals do all the emergency training in fire and rescue techniques. Flagging and communication techniques are reviewed to enable us to sharpen our skills and rid ourselves of the "cobwebs" that have accumulated during the winter.

There are lots of fast food places in the area to obtain lunch. Space limitations limit the sessions to 50 students. Rental of the facilities and the use of the fire extinguisher chemicals dictate that a fee of $20 be charged each student. Please make your reservations as soon as you can, by contacting Gray Brumfield, 303-420-2996, or brumson@comcast.net, or a letter to 6270 Zephyr St., Arvada, CO 80004-3474.
