So, I have a suggestion I would like to throw out for folks to think on about the CSCC Enduro.
The participation level of the Enduro has fallen off to a point where, in my view, it is not sustainable. I have no inside information on this, it is simply an observation.
The number of entrants and volunteers has fallen to levels never before seen, that I recall.
So, my suggestion is, the club could come up with a minimum number of entrants to break even, financially. Get that number out to the racers. Also, set a date that, if the required number of entries is not met by said date, the Enduro is not to be held that year.
Ya know, the Enduro used to be something that the workers planned for early on in the season, to get teams and menus set up for the day. It used to be there was a contest to see what turn did the best food for the day. The last couple of years, the turn crews were fed, primarily, by one turn crew, sending out food to the other turns. Last year, Holly did a wonderful job sending out pizzas, and before that, Bud and I sent out bowls of beef stew and cornbread.
So, there you have it.
Your thoughts on this matter are appreciated.
