Well it’s been a busy month out here working on this track resurfacing and somewhat stressful. We ran into an issue once we got the old concrete out of the right lane as the base was not much of a base after 35 years and a very small amount of money we had when we built this racetrack. The base was mud and mostly dirt with no stability. So we had to come up with a plan and how much more funds it was going to take. So we ended up removing 2 ft and putting in proper base material. This project has become somewhat over budget due to the base. The right lane is getting close to done and on Friday the concrete will becoming out of the left and if all goes to plan we will be getting ready for concrete by the end of the month.
I can’t thank everyone enough who has donated through go fund me or just doing transfers. Big thanks to the Alberta government, the city of Med Hat and Michelle Albers who did a huge donation on behalf of Tim and the Snake Pit to match our grant and Murray Hawker who has been my right hand man and the guy behind the scenes dealing with the city and government and our executive for working on fund raising. We will have our thank you sign up for spring. Once again I can’t thank everyone enough for all your donations.
At this point we are looking for anyone who is interested in become a marketing partner with MHDRA and do some name branding out here. Please get a hold of Dave if you know anyone interested
We still want to do work on the rest of the asphalt so fundraising will not stop but at this point we won’t be able to go any further
Thanks so much
Dave Toth
