Hi LynT
I raced lasted year with it being a well run event and no doubt conditions pending I will look to race next year.
I'm just touching base to see how entrants go about receiving our refund for entries to the BOP that was cancelled (assuming this may be covered in the conditions of entry??). I expect it may take few days until someone has the time to start this task but if you can give us an idea it would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Herb
Sunday I feel that all BOP entry fees had been returned .. and Herb Cant seem to find your entry or cheque can you give me a call on 0417 272379 and I will follow through ..
Great Advice ... Will Follow through .... But All according to the accounts department who always follow up all have been "paid out" !
