SATURDAY 27^th NOVEMBER 2021 – AT THE ROYAL HOTEL, THE ESPLANADE, WEYMOUTH. 

The Hotel is situated directly on Weymouth Seafront, between the clock tower and the King George statue, with parking spaces directly behind the hotel.  Here, there are 2 disabled bays, plus a limited number of standard bays on a first come basis.  Parking is free from 6 pm to 8 am, with pre-purchased hours available at either end of the overnight option.   There is also the option of ‘free’ parking on any of the side streets nearby.

Dear competitor, Friends and Family,

Over the past year, the Coronavirus has prevented the end of season presentation from taking place.  The trophies were, however, presented at race meetings as and when appropriate.  Although effective, this did not allow the drivers involved an end of year spectacular, to which they were previously accustomed.  

GOOD NEWS! This magnificent event is back on the calendar once again, with the NKRA taking up the helm of organisation for 2021. 

Throughout the past 18 months a ‘guess the bonus ball’ competition at  Championship rounds has been organised on behalf of the NKRA,  by Shelley Alexander.   With all proceeds going towards offsetting the entertainment costs at the presentation evening.

This year the Trophy Presentation & Dinner Dance Ball will take place on November 27^th, at the ROYAL HOTEL, WEYMOUTH.  The policy always was, and this year will be again, to present to the racers and their family and friends an occasion worthy of their annual achievements.

The dress code will be formal, Dinner Jacket & bow tie for the men, and evening/cocktail wear for the ladies. For the youths a shirt and bow tie is adequate.  After a year of race suits and mechanics overalls, it will be nice to see everyone dressed for the occasion.

Tickets for the Ball will be £35 for adults and £20 for Juniors 11 – 16 years.  Children under the age of 11 years – £ 15.   The prices,  as already stated,  are substantially subsidised and include.

Hire of the Venue
3 Course dinner ( choice of menu)
Coffee or tea and mints
Bottles of red and white wine on tables
Live Band

Prizes

With the uncertainties of reinstating this event, the planning provides for a minimum of 50 and a maximum of 80 people attending.  After this there will not be any extra places, so please get your tickets early.  Tickets are available to purchase with immediate effect with payment by cheque or cash. ( Cheques made out to N.K.R.A. )  They are also available to purchase at any of the forthcoming  NKRA / Blue Challenge and  Two Counties Club Championships rounds.   
See Julie Shone at the circuit  or Tel.  01305 774074
The menu choices will be forwarded for you to choose nearer the time.

To ensure that racing competitors are not closed out, every driver listed in either the NKRA and 2 Counties results list will be able to secure up to 3 tickets ( including themselves) if purchased by August 28^th, after that ticket sales are open to all.
PLEASE NOTE THAT TICKETS/ PLACES ARE NOT ALLOCATED UNTIL PAYMENT HAS BEEN RECEIVED.  

Limited accommodation is available at The Royal Hotel, where the event is being held. When booking, please phone the Hotel ( direct  01305 782777)  and speak to Emma in reception, she is there most days up until 2 pm.  Mention the NKRA / Two Counties event to get the concession rate on rooms, which is  £ 70 for up to 2 persons in a double or twin room with breakfast included.

As usual there will be a raffle during the evening, if anyone wishes to donate to this, please contact Serita Shone.

Finally, drivers who have already won annual NKRA or TABOR Trophies in 2020, are requested to return them to Ron Shone.  The 2 Counties annual trophies should be returned to Shelley Alexander.  This will allow for the engraving of the names of the new winners, in time for the presentation aspect of the evening. These trophies can be handed over at any race meeting after the NKRA Grande Finals. 

We look forward to seeing you there.

Best wishes
