Traveller Series - Loch Tummel

Results have now been published, and incorporated into the series (Results>2008 on the menu).

Traveller Series

Two down. The series continues at North Berwick (ELYC) on 7-8 June. As last year, there is a combined fleets website to handle on-line registration, and to disseminate information. Links will appear from the calendar (usually via the logo, and with specific links to the NoRs (Notices of Race) as they are published. Pre-registraion for East Lothian is now open. Please register on line as soon as possible. It helps the clubs ensure that sufficient food, drink and safety cover is available.

This year a registration form has been generated for the series: please use it to ensure that your entry is considered in the series results!

Hint: do read the Notice of Race (and the Sailing Instructions if available) before you arrive at the venue. The time of the briefing is usually published in there, as is other important information!

Training

It is the intention of the area to run six (6) training events over the winter period. These will take the format of one and a half days training, followed by half a day of racing. The races will be scored and will constitute a mini-winter series.
Prizes will be awarded for each event and the series.

Summer Race Camp

Supported by RYA Scotland

The details for the Summer Race Camp are now available and can be found at http://www.scottishtoppers.org.uk/morlich_camp.html.

2008 Traveller Series

The 2008 series is now defined: the Notice of Race can be found at EventData/ScotSeries_NoR_2008.pdf.
Competitors should register for the series on-line via this link.
Note that you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to read this notice. All the events are now on the calendar. I have generated a vcal file for those of you who want to import the dates into your desktop calendar. ScotOppTravlr.vcal.

Suggestions for improvement, notification of things that are broken, and submissions for the site should be emailed to webmaster @ scottishtoppers.org.uk
All Scottish Topper organisation and administration queries should be addressed to Liz. Her new email address for Toppery things is arearep @ scottishtoppers.org.uk
Note the anti-spam spaces will need to be removed. Alternatively, you can use the contact form (when I've written it!).

Calendar. The Calendar is now active (I expect a lot of you have found it already). By default it shows generic events and Topper events. Tick the check box(es) to add other information.

Navigation

The site uses javascript for the menu. Note that Results>2007 will show you the 2007 series summary; Results>2008 will give the 2008 series summary.

Coming Soon...

Some photos from the 2007 events will be appearing soon. Watch for a 'gallery' option appearing on the menu!

I will attempt to maintain an RSS feed (which means that if you subscribe to it, you will automatically be notified of updates to the site!)

On-line registration. Since most of the Scottish Topper events are shared with other classes (principally the Scottish Optimists) we will use the Optimist on-line registration system for all events where the host club wishes to utilise it. Webmaster
