new Ontario Race Track - needs our support!!
« on: October 20, 2009, 04:32:04 pm »
Hi everyone, I received this message that will effect us all as motorsport enthusiasts, please take a minute to show your support not only for the track but for growth in the province!  

As motorsports enthusiasts we all know that there are not nearly enough venues in Ontario.    This proposed speedway is like nothing else in Canada, and we have been given an opportunity to voice our opinions and show our support for growth and chance in this sport.    The Canadian Motor Speedway needs YOUR help to make this dream turn into a reality.    Please take a few moments and show your support, don’t let the people who oppose have the only voice.   This is an amazing opportunity not only for racers and fans, but also for the entire province.

PLEASE HELP THE SPEEDWAY BECOME A REALITY BY WRITING A LETTER OF SUPPORT TODAY TO:
Carolyn J. Kett
Clerk
Town Hall
1 Municipal Centre Drive
Fort Erie, ON - L2A 2S6
ckett [at] forterie . on . ca

DON’T FORGET TO “CC” A COPY OF YOUR EMAIL TO THE RACE TRACK  info [at] cdnmotorspeedway.com
AND VISIT THEIR WEBSITE TO CHECK OUT THIS ONE OF A KIND FACILITY  www[dot]cdnmotorspeedway[dot]com

Have you ever heard of a “GREEN” race track?   Well now you have!  This speedway will enhance environmental features with the creation of additional and sustainable creeks, storm water ponds and an Eco Park, which exemplifies a co-existence between the modernized and natural world.

There are so many reasons why we in Ontario need this track!!
It  will be a world class venue recognized as a tourism attraction which will benefit the travel/tourism industry in the Niagara region, the positive economic impact with the creation of jobs during this global economic crisis and creating a positive impact to the Niagara region and surrounding communities, , the educational partnerships in the automotive and manufacturing sector,  it’s a leader paving the way for environment friendly race tracks,  it offers a wide range of activities and entertainment for racers, fans  and their families, something you cannot find at any other facility.

Most importantly it provides an outlet to drivers of all ages to test their vehicles performance in a safe and controlled environment  to develop and enhance skills that cannot be achieved by driving on public roads by offering training by certified professionals, these types of driver improvement programs keep our street safer for everyone and help reduce dangerous driving activities.

Please, let’s not be deprived of this incredible opportunity!    Please forward this message to all of your friends and if you belong to other clubs/forums please post this message as it affects us all as an automotive enthusiast community!

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPORT!

I just got another message about this... the vote is December 7th and I for one will be out to support it.   I also signed the petition!

see message below...

THIS IS IT! The vote for approval goes Monday December 7, 2009, 6 p.m. @ Fort Erie Town Hall.

This will be the final meeting for approval and we need to have a major presence on this night. The opponents will be there in force and we need to show the voters how passionate we are about this development. Again I Thank You for all your messages, comments and support. Each and every one of you HAVE made a difference. The Facebook group has a prominent place in generating awareness and support for the CMS project and Town Council has noted that. The developers and partners have noticed what you have done as well, and are most appreciative. I will post a link on the "events" section of the CMS Group page about the Vote Meeting. Please show on the 7th and bring all the support you can muster. Thank You!
