Race Committee

Hey folks, Philippe here. I run the race program at WSC, and you’ll hear from me from time to time. We are a volunteer club, so please do your part to help our racing series thrive!

Do you want to participate in Race Committee? Contact me at pbl@ideos.com and let me know what role and when.

Race Committee Barge Support: Assists in operations on the RC barge (time recording, flags, horn)
Safety Boat Driver: Operates the Safety power boat & safely navigates while assisting

I created this cheat sheet to help run races. The document is also found in laminated form in the Race Committee clam shell document holder.
