It reflects our appreciation of the support of the community. Sincerely, The Lee family Walton Dear Chris, lust a quick note to express our thanks for a great five days at the "Championships" in your back- yard. in the short time that our family has been involved in the competition side of motocross we have been made to feel most welcome. The Walton festival was certainly no exception. The scenery was beautiful, the competition great, the track a dream for spectators and riders alike and the people were fabulous. Please pass along our special thanks to the Brussels' Optimists for their outstanding work during the four days, to the St. John's Ambulance crews who were always at the ready, to the lap scorers who were able to do the impossible and to Dave who provided constant, informative and up to date information about the riders and the motos over the PA system. 1 was particularly impressed with the race officials and the flag marshals who did an outstanding job of ensuring the safety of all riders. As you know by now 1 have a thing about adequate flagging and marshalling. 1t was excellent throughout all four days. The thought that had been given to the small details was much appreciated; the availability of a printed daily race schedule, a place to put used oil, access to a power washer, showers, fresh water, an RV dumping station, the media presence on Sunday and the warm welcome of local communi- ties were all refreshing and obviously the result of much work and thought on the part of the organizers in your family and beyond. • 1 am sure that you are relieved that it is all over for this year and soon it will be time to start plan- ning for the 1995 event. Once again 1 offer my assistance in any way that may be possible given that we live in Richmond Hill. On behalf of my wife Jan, our son Rob and our daughter Karen 1 thank you for a great five days. We look forward to seeing you on some Sunday soon. Sincerely, Mike Hodge Richmond Hill heroism to be eligible for con- sideration it must have taken place between October 1, 1993 and September 30, 1994.
