Alaska has a new pond and a new club

[charles siler]

It's been along time sense Alaska has had a pond to race at without sharing it with the public. Last summer I spent some time taken to private land owners and found a gem in the rough a 3 stage pond system that can run two race tracks. We are very excited to organize a club and get this baby going to reopen NAMBA district 12.

 

[John Dufek]

How do you join the club, Ready to race.

 

[Bob Blazer]

Congratulations on getting a lake and a new club. Being that your in Alaska I am assuming that racing season is between July 3rd and July 5th.

For the meantime a NAMBA card and a sign a waver of liability ,enter a class just as you would do most every where else . No entry fees yet. Work with or bring a pit man . We still have the district paper work to finish up.

We have been on the water as early as April 16th in the rain and as late as Oct. 31st and snowing with ice 5 foot off the banks. But can't do many racing in those conditions.
