The BTRDA now moves north for its next two rounds and both the Border Counties Rally in May and the Kielder Forest Rally in June need marshals to assist with the safe running of the events.

Following the Rallynuts Stages yesterday, the BTRDA now moves north for its next two rounds.

Marshals would be very welcome on the Border Counties Rally, which runs in the picturesque forests of the Scottish Borders and the Tweed Valley on Saturday 11th May. The total route will consist of 6 stages, approximately 44 miles with 170 road miles. All stages are on forest roads. The event is looking for marshals and radio marshals for the stages. They are also looking for marshals for the start and regroup in Jedburgh. You can volunteer directly to the Chief Marshal Colin Rodger or to the Communications Officer Simon Goodwin, or you can fill in the online form - Border Counties Rally Marshal Registration Form 2024 (google.com)

The third round of the BTRDA championship is the Kielder Forest Rally on Saturday 15th June. The event follows the format of 3 stages run twice. Lindsay Burnip is the Stage Commander for the Bower stage. If you would like to volunteer, you can contact her directly at poshbirdincontrol@btinternet.com, or you can volunteer via www.rallystageteam.co.uk.

If you fancied something a little bit different, the Scottish Summer Hill Rally takes place over the weekend of 31st May - 2nd June and is based at Thirlestane Castle, Lauder, in the Scottish Borders. The Chief Marshal is Stewart Paton - chief-marshal@scottish-hillrally.co.uk
