"As Chairman, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my committee for all the hard work t𒁃hey have put in to ensure the races on the Billown Course are as safe as possible."
"As organisers we are also extremely grateful to all the volunteer marshals and officials w🐻ho give up so much of their frღee time during the practices and races for each of the meetings held annually. We also appreciate the help and courtesy afforded to us by the residents and landowners around the 4.25-mile course."
"Of course without the continued support we receive from the꧅ competitors, their sponsors and supporters it would not be possible to plan and organise the meeting we run each year. We all have one aim and that is to promote, organise and run safe and enjoyable events on the Billown Course."
