Default SCCA Solo Department Announces New Site Acquisition Committee

It says they are going to provide help at the regional level.
Cool, maybe they can help us re-acquire Macdill.

By Curtis Kitchen
TOPEKA, Kan. (May 25, 2005) – Sports Car Club of America, Inc. Solo Department officials have announced the formation of a Site Acquisition Committee.

As the name suggests, the new Committee’s primary responsibility will be to provide support to Regions in locating new venues for Regional and Divisional SCCA Solo competitions while continuing to cultivate existing site relationships.

“As the sport of Solo continues its rapid growth, having this committee ensures that SCCA will remain its leader,” SCCA Director of Solo Tasha Goodale said. “Our objective is to put on events in locations that best serve the interests of both our members and the sport overall. Plus, providing new sites for competitors gives our sport an added level of excitement as prospective members at the new locations are given the opportunity, perhaps for the first time, to see and participate in a Solo event.”

The members who make up the six-person committee (and their previous Solo experience) are:

Raleigh Boreen, Chairman (Westfield, Ind.) – A member of the Saginaw Valley Region, Boreen has participated in SCCA for 29 years and is a Solo Safety Instructor. He presented a Site Acquisition seminar at the 2005 National Convention in Kansas City.

Tina Reeves (Rochester, N.Y.) - Reeves is a 22-year member of SCCA and currently serves on the Solo Events Board. She is a Solo Safety Instructor from Central New York Region. In the past, she also served as a Northeast Divisional Solo II Steward.

George Schweikle (Lexington, Ky.) - Schweikle is a Solo Safety Instructor from Central Kentucky Region and a 41-year member.

Bryan Nemy (Hayward, Calif.) - Nemy is from San Francisco Region and is a 17-year member. He also is a Solo Safety Instructor.

Jim Garry (Delmar, N.Y.) - Garry is a former SEB member and is now an active 25-year member in the Mohawk Hudson Region. He now serves as a Solo Safety Instructor.

Bruce Bellom (Peekskill, N.Y.) - A 14-year member from New York Region, Bellom is a current member of the Solo Safety Committee and is the Northeast Divisional Safety Steward.

The committee is expected to convene its first meeting via conference call Tuesday, May 31.

Suggestions and/or ideas for the committee may be submitted to Tasha Goodale at tgoodale@scca.com.

That would be nice. I know it is possible, since Delta Region in New Orleans has continued to use their site at Belle Chase Naval Air Station.
