Updated the post with the location of the race within the mall.

Less than a month away!

Still confirming the BW discount with the hotel. In the mean time I'll track down a couple more budget friendly options.

We do not have any Euro Trucks locally, but if enough show up we will run the class, as I know it has regional interest.

Home Inn and Suites. Just down the way from the Mall. $101 per night. Decent reviews. Found the rate on expedia, called them up and they just matched it even without checking. Spoke to a gal named Victoria. Give it a try.

Added Euro Truck to the OP.

We have confirmed locally that this is the demo class we'll support.

Hope to see lots out!

Just to make it clear, as I've recieved a few messages regarding this:

This race is on the "Black Carpet" that most other tracks in the series are using. Apologies for having it listed as Ozite.

Looks like a fun new venue, thanks Sask for finding a new place on short notice!

Was hoping to make it out, but I'm on the board of my church and we're hiring a new pastor, and the interview, meeting and Sunday services stand-in are now set for the same Saskatoon weekend. So unfortunately, unless something changes, it looks like I can't attend.

But they've got everything all in place and looks like it will be a great race as always!

It's race week! Super excited to be in the new venue. More public locations are always fantastic for getting more people exposed to the hobby!

Regarding the BW code, apologies to anyone who phoned trying to use the WCICS corporate code. I will be phoning BW's Head Office today and seeing if our agreement lapsed or if there's some other issue we're contending with. If you booked with BW anyways, watch this space. I will update the post if I can get the discount figured out. They should let you apply it to existing reservations.
