Doo Wop Rally Series, 2010

The Organizing Committee welcomes you to this year’s running of the Doo Wop Rally Series.

We wish to thank the following for letting us play on their lands:

The City of Montesano

The Grays Harbor CountyCommissioners

Vessey & Sons Logging

The Pacific CountyCommissioners

The Weyerhaeuser Company

Port Blakely Tree Farms

The City of South Bend

Harbor Rock

This year, the Doo Wops are basically a repeat of last year, with the Blue Slough pavement stage being run twice and then directly to the MontesanoCityForest for the Pico Stages with no time to change tires. The Pico Stages will be run once in each direction with Service in between, then off to the 13 Corners Road, part gravel, part paved, run in each direction. It is officially known as the Wishkah Cutoff Road or the Wishkah-Wynoochee Road or some variation thereof. We said last year it was to be a one-time only running before re-alignment and paving; then politics became involved, and we get to do it again. Construction is going out for bids on the 22nd of Feb., 2010.

That sums up Day 1, which will end back at the Host Hotel with a Pizza Dinner for the measly sum of $5.00, all you can consume. Salads and sodas provided.

Sunday is the fun day starting with the famous Brooklyn Stage, then the fast Smith Creek Stage, Service in the wonderful town of South Bend, then the Palix Road run twice, then Smith Creek and Brooklyn both in reverse. The awards banquet will be in our usual place at the Oakville Grange with the hosts preparing the dinner. Please be prepared to bring some non-perishable food for their Food Bank operation and cash if you prefer.

We wish you a safe and fun event and hope you enjoy your visit to the Washington Coastal region. See you at the Oakville Grange Sunday evening.

Thank you,

RonBarker, Chairman and Clerk of the Course
