One of the key elements to a successful track is the team working the circuit to communicate information to our drivers. As we head into another season of hot laps, we're offering FREE flag worker / corner worker training for a few enthusiastic and responsible fans to help drivers stay safe.
SATURDAY MAY 27 from 10am - 12pm (noon)
Penticton Community Centre, Meeting Room 3
Capacity: 25 people max (it's free)
Pre-registration is required. No drop-ins.

This entry level course is taught by Chief Marshal Linda Dorval, who has experience on racetracks in Canada and the US. Course attendees learn the meaning of each flag, the correct way to flag, and how to respond to a spin or other situation. Our introductory course prepares students for flag work at corners on our FIA-level professional circuit for member lapping days and private or corporate events.
Safety on the track is paramount - whether it's for member track days, at our performance driving academy, or during private events.
Flag workers are predominantly volunteer positions with the exception of Corporate Event days. All shifts are eligible for reward incentives. Flag workers must be a minimum 18 years of age. We ask people commit to 4 or more days per month. Our track schedule is online.
Interested? Email linda@area27.ca. All participants must have valid ID and be 18 years of age or older. Space is limited and we will establish a wait list. If you register and cannot attend due to unforeseen circumstances, please respect our time - advise us as soon as possible so we can bump someone up from the wait list.
We look forward to seeing you with us on the track this summer.
