2017 Presidents FB announcement

This is Douglas. We are off to a slow start getting this information out to you from last week’s business meeting. The plan is to have all information like the schedule available to members on the STRA website, which will be updated as soon as we get all the appropriate administrative privileges. Our plan is to use the website as the primary source for posting ongoing information such as schedule, completion standings, rules, etc.

The STRA Facebook page will remain as a means for direct member to member interaction. We would like to move away from it being dominated by buy and sell items to a club communication page. Recognizing the need for the club members to have a way to advertise relevant sale items, this change will not be made until we can establish a means to accomplish both via the Facebook page.

Following is the 2017 STRA schedule:

March 11 – 12 Florida 
March 18 – 19 Track Rock, GA 
April 22 – 23 Papa Joe’s, TN 
May 27 – 28 TTC, TN 
September 16 – 17 Alabama 
October 7 – 8 Cornella, GA 
October 21 – 22 TTC, TN 
November 11 – 12 Ringgold, GA

Please do not forget about Kevin Browning’s event in Prattville, AL Saturday the 21st. The flyer is posted here on the Facebook page.

The North American Trials Council met this past weekend in Columbus, Ohio, where it set the schedule for the 2015 and 2016 US National MotoTrials Series, as well as made a few structure changes to a couple of the national classes. In a effort to keep travel costs down for riders travelling to the national events, the NATC has split the Support class championships into East and West divisions, while the Pro, Expert and 125 Expert classes will contest the entire schedule. Starting in 2015, the series will be divided into the AMA/NATC Eastern National Championship Series and the AMA/NATC Western National Championship Series for the following classes:
