Bert Harkins Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks to all the fans out there who contributed to the building of the National Speedway Museum at Paradise Wildlife Park in Hertfordshire, without you, there would be no Museum. The feedback from visitors has been very encouraging and the amount of memorabilia loaned or given to the Museum has been excellent and now the time has come to expand and be able to show even more bikes, leathers, etc. The trophy collection of the late, great Simon Wigg would fill a museum on their own. Planning permission is going ahead for an extention which will take over the part originally intended as an outdoor pits area, so this will give us much more room for display.. Once again, funds have to be raised but this time there will be a Grand Draw withthe opportunity of winning some great prizes which will include;- 2 Tickets for a London Show with overnight accommodation included.. 2 Tickets for the British Grand Prix at Cardiff with accommodation included (and remember how expensive Cardiff hotels are during the GP weekend.)) Feeding the Tigers (not Glasgow or Sheffield) at Paradise Wildlife Park and a tour of the Park with overnight accommodation at the Marriott Hotel. Plus other prizes still to be announced. Tickets are only £1 each or £5 for a book of five and will be available around some of the tracks or from Elaine at the Speedway Museum, TEL. 01922-470-490, Extention 218, EMAIL speedwaymuseum@pwpark.com or check the Museum website, www.speedwaymuseum.co.uk It is hoped to have the extention ready and have the official opening ceremony at the Celebration of Speedway event at the Park on 21st February Please support this good cause and help the Speedway Museum go from strength to strength.
