BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING
The Mid Florida BOD is planning on having
a board meeting in August. We are searching for a new
meeting place due to Donattos Pizza closing down. Please
keep checking the web for the exact date and place. As
always, the general membership is welcome to attend.
The Regional Board would like to welcome
PJ Sozio as Assistant Regional Director and Danielle Pollitt as
the Regional Secretary. They will be filling the positions for
the remaining 2008 season.
PJ and Danielle have both been a part of Quarter Midget Racing
for many years, and their knowledge and
enthusiasm will be an asset to this region.
Welcome aboard PJ and Danielle and thank you for your support.
NEW TRACK UPDATE
Mid Florida Board of directors are
looking for more land for our new track. The Mid Florida board
of directors spent many hours working with Brevard county and
the karting club to find a way for both clubs to continue to use
the same property. The proposal that Mid Florida BOD
presented to the Hurricane Karting club members was not accepted
by the karting general membership. The Mid Florida BOD are
keeping all options open and talking to some other interested
parties. Please keep checking the website for updates or
contact a board member. We are determined to find a home
for Mid Florida and appreciate all of our members support.
If you have any ideas, please contact Keith Jackson, President
of Mid Florida. Thank you for your continued support.
The Board of directors meeting has been
cancelled for the month of June. Please check the website
for the next scheduled meeting.

2008 MID FLORIDA MEMBERSHIPS
As many of you already know, MFQMRA
is in the process of building a new track this year. The board
is very excited about the plans that are in the works and there will
be a general membership meeting soon to finalize some decisions in
order to move forward. The fact that the track will not be
built until at least mid year requires MFQMRA to become a non-racing
charter. You must additionally join a racing charter in order
to race at any track in 2008.
Mid Florida needs all of our members
to continue their membership. This will allow you to have a
voice and a vote in the future of our new track and facility.
MFQMRA has lowered our club fee to $50.00.
There is still a fee of $75.00 due to
national also.
Please contact Debbie Bigham at
dbcbig@bellsouth.net for
application.
