Please could all 2008 Rally Marshals contact the Treasurer, Janet Dobson with any queries or for advice before running their rally. Whatever the question or query, Janet will be able to guide you and make sure your rally accounting is on the right track. You will be surprised how easy it is to get in a tangle, so don't be afraid of asking for help as it saves time in the long run. Thank you.
 

For security reasons and to help avoid the growing problem of identity fraud, please could Rally Marshals shred rally slips after a rally to ensure members' details cannot be re-used. If you do not have a shredder, please pass old slips to a Committee member who will ensure they are are shredded for you.  Thank you for your assistance.
 

Rally Marshals please confirm or book any venues.  Your help in this matter will be much appreciated.

If you would like to propose a rally for next season, an information sheet and form can be downloaded from the bottom of this page, or contact the Rally Secretary    rallysec@suffolkcentre.co.uk
 

REMEMBER NO MATTER
HOW SMALL THE VENUE

KEEP 20 FEET BETWEEN YOU
 

The SCCC Equipment Officer has received a number of questions about the safety and use of our electric and gas Tea Urns. To support Marshals we have prepared the following advice. Download the instruction sheets and pass them to your Marshals.

If you require a Tea Urn for your rally, please be sure to book well in advance with the Equipment Officer. Particularly for larger rallies that require two.

After a rally has ended, please can you ensure that the Tea Urn is collected for the next rally or returned to the Equipment Officer.
 

Electric Tea Urns are typically used indoors and must be sited next to a fixed 13A electric socket. This is due to there 3kW power requirement. The use of extension leads is also not advised. Marshals should not attempt to use electric tea urns on electric hook-up or where temporary power points are installed, unless specifically advised by a qualified electrician.

Gas Tea Urns can be used indoors or out doors. Do not site within 3 feet of curtains, awnings, gazebos, wind breaks etc due to fire risk. Instructions for lighting:
1.  Ensure gas bottle is securely fastened using a gas spanner
2.  Place the Gas Tea Urn on level ground (avoid grass or flammable surfaces)
3.  Fill the Urn with Water
4. Turn gas on and pass lighter or match through lighting hole at arms length (keep your face back from flame area)
5.  When finished, switch off gas and allow Urn to cool. Remove water before moving Urn.
 

It is very important that each coloured set of rally equipment is checked after a rally. It is common for equipment to be lost or stolen and it helps us all if you can check the equipment when you collect it and when you pass it on. There is a list in the lid of the box where missing items can be marked and sent to the Equipment Officer, so that any missing items can be ordered and replaced. The coloured can then be collected by the next Marshal that is booked to have that particular coloured set of equipment. Your help with this is very much appreciated.
 

It is very important that incidents are reported by the Rally Marshal / Organiser and all the information is collected at the time of the incident. Please download and use the form below to capture the relevant information and pass it to your Centre Hon Secretary for processing.
