Marshals are still required for the Borders Competitions Jim Clark Rally and the Fintray House Hillclimb this weekend (22 – 24 May).
The ‘Clark’, a round of various championships including the British Rally Championship, runs stages on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday all in the area around Duns. Free camping is available on Friday and Saturday night in Duns. Contact the Chief Marshal, Dean Pugh (dean.pugh@me.com) or the Communications Officer, Pete Lawrence (pete@smmc.org.uk)

Two events, different disciplines, different parts of the country, but both welcoming volunteer whether you are experienced or not – you will be paired with experienced marshals. You are also guaranteed a warm welcome (event if the weather tries otherwise).
