West Durham Amalgamation

Racepoint - Ackworth 8th April 2023

All wagons arrived on site 12:15 am

All birds watered up by 1oclock had 20 baskets down 2 aisles of the wagons which wasn't very pleased about, had to move them outside whilst others were getting watered then they had to be put back inside with troughs on!

WDA Chairman Ian Stafford has created an Official West Durham Amalgamation Facebook page which is now "live".

It will contain information from meetings, race results, lib info, liberation videos and other information pertinent to the WDA & NEHU.

It is an information portal to keep the membership updated as to what is happening at Amalgamation level.

We basket for our 1st race of 2023 tonight, It's been a hard Months work to get us here.
Richard Wade has done a great deal to get us here organiseing drivers and helpers and lots of other things
Joe Proffit is now our Chief Convoyer and he has some new drivers/helpers so please be patient tonight, it's a bit of a learning curve.
Give them all the help and support you can and remember, without these lads there will be no racing.

Just like to make thanks on behalf of all the members of the Amal to the Wade trio, Richard, Martin and Russell for the help they have given over the last month preparing the wagons for this weeks race, Without them we would definitely not be racing this week, I can't believe we have actually made it,
Thanks also James Whitney, Ian Stafford and Alan Brown
I don't usually do stress but for the last month I have been walking on the edge, but all I can say is THANK YOU
WE MADE IT
