Sept. 1 & 2—AMS Racing Cross Country
Vanderburgh 4-H Center
Evansville, Ind.

Pre-entry deadline: Aug. 17

Members of the IND ILL KY Enduro Riders Association are again hosting the AHRMA Black Coal national cross country (the club has been putting on the Black Coal national enduros and hare scrambles for many years). It takes place at a sprawling fairgrounds with a nice, long course made up of mostly of woods and fields. Saturday night, the club will host a social hour.

The folks in Evansville did an outstanding job last year and I would hate for them to have to deal with any misunderstandings.

Note: There is no youth event this year.
