As frequent race promoters (Stamullen M Donnelly RC), we ask that all individuals write their name clearly on the sign on sheet because lately we are all having trouble reading the names of prize winners from the sheet. This delays the prize-giving presentation no-end and the problem is not of 'our making'. We would appreciate cooperation.
