With the Stone Cross Stars team now complete and all contracts signed etc, its now time to move on. The Sponsors Lounge is paid for and almost ready, the centre green has been revamped and tidied up, food outlets have been upgraded and the club bar has been recarpeted and painted and is now fully stocked.
Tomorrow, team manager Adrian Spencer will be taking Harris, How and Jay to 3 local schools in a bid to drum up some interest from the kids and their families and to issue some tickets and the chance to be a mascot for the day.
The magnificent facade that is the turnstile entrances has now been completed by club sponsor "Gravestones Direct" and it includes marble and stone flooring and a tremendous STONE CROSS SPEEDWAY emblem chiselled from stone above the entrance.
It is all bolted down, so when the Hailsham fans come, they won't be able to take it home with them !!!!
As the tracks neighbour is St Lukes Church, the full team and volunteers will be working in the church yard, to cut grass and a general clear up. "There may even be some work for the sponsors" said Spencer.
I'm sure the lads will make themselves known in the Red Lion for a lunchtime drink too.
The air fence has been erected for the first time with no problems, so in about a week, when the track should have bedded down well, practice behind closed doors will commence. There should also be a practice match behind closed doors against Stefan Botezatu's previous Rumanian Club the TIMISOARA INDIANS, then we will be ready for the Hailsham pre season matches.
The club are taking bookings for TANKS to take fans to nearby Hailsham, so contact the club if you really want an afternoon in Hailsham (HELLSHAM).
