**REMINDER TO ALL RACERS**

Please be sure to take advantage of the Wednesday night PPKC Practice Night on May 1st, from 5pm-Dark. The track will be made available to racers exclusively, with Rental Karts being run at a very minimum. This Practice Night provides racers the opportunity to test their machines and tune them up for the upcoming Race Day, as well as compare themselves to their competition prior to Race Day. Most importantly though, it provides a great break to the week, enabling all members a chance to hang-out at the track, and spend time with Members without the RUSH usually associated with a normal Race Day.

13/04/23 Racing for great causes this weekend

Kart Racing at PPK has always been promoted as a Family Sport, and Members have always become a karting family over the years.

To continue promoting this atmosphere, Point Pelee Karting Club would like to remind everyone about this Sunday’s Annual Toy Drive. Please bring a unwrapped new toy to registration, or pay $5 extra. The donations will be handed over on behalf of the Members to local emergency services and shelters for kids in need. Let’s do our part for those less fortunate.

In addition to the Toy Drive, this week is also Organ Donor Awareness week.

One of our Karting Family Members needs our support. Long-time karting Mom, Wife and Friend; Edith Myer has been working through health complications over the past 9 months, and is in need of an Organ Donor. PPKC needs to step up and do what we can to bring awareness to Edith’s situation.

We encourage everyone that will be attending this Sundays race to "Wear Green" to show support for Edith and this cause. We will be entering a Membership photo of us all Wearing Green and entering it into a Trillium Foundation Contest.
