I am sending out this e-mail on behalf of the members of the Pan Am Region. We are looking to host a divisional on June 26th/27th and we were hoping you could forward this on to your membership or let them know. We would love to see as many folks show up as possible and we would like to know a bit ahead of time how many people to expect. If they would like to attend they can either e-mail me at this e-mail, or sign up online at www.panamscca.org. If anyone has any issues signing up please have them e-mail me or give me a call 915-667-4624. Thank you for your time.

On that note, we are always in need of people who are willing to help manage our races, and participate in the business end of the Lone Star Region. Our Board meets the first Wednesday of every month at Athena Manufacturing off HWY 290 across from UPS. You are invited to come out and learn more about our Region. Please contact anyone on the board through e-mails listed on the contact page of this site for more information.
Lone Star Regional Forums: A forum
group has been created on the Southwest Division forums. You can go directly to the LSR
forums here!
Don't be shy — come and get involved! You
don't have to have a race car, solo, or be a rally fanatic to come to a Lone Star Region
event. Members are encouraged to bring other interested folks, too. We welcome ALL car
nuts.
Other upcoming events: See the Race and Event Schedule.
If you have photos or race reports for the website, please send them to the

The Executive Board of the Lone Star Region needs you to help us help
you. Racing costs continue to increase, and those costs directly affect entry fees. The
region's board, officers and race chairmen are actively engaged in scrutinizing racing
costs for reduction opportunities, and are developing alternative race formats that will
have inherent savings in terms of sanction fees, insurance costs, etc.
The other opportunity to contain entry fees will come from alternative revenue sources
- race sponsors, to be specific. We represent an attractive demographic group, and need to
exploit that by finding businesses that would like focused access to it. Opportunities for
custom crafted sponsor / promotion packages, at both the 'naming sponsor' and 'supporting
sponsor' level, are unlimited.
How do you help? One of three ways:
1. Contact someone on the Executive Board (see "Contact info" on
./) with suggestions for potential sponsors. Include 'decision
maker' contact information.
2. Show up at an Executive Board meeting and volunteer to lead or participate on a
sponsor / promotion / marketing committee to help craft attractive custom packages for
potential race sponsors.
3. Sign on as a race sponsor, and tell us what we can do to make the most of the
opportunity for you. Promotional visibility, on site presence -- you name it and we can
work together to make it happen.
Racing has only one winner -- but race sponsorship can be win / win.
