Eldon stopped by my house this morning with, what I consider, very sad news. Eldon has decided that it is time for him to retire from I-70 as our safety director and flagman. I know this was not an easy decision for him to make. Eldon has been a part of I-70 since it's beginning. Eldon has volunteered, as do we all, but without his own child racing. He loves the sport and was happy to be an IMPORTANT part of it. I understand and respect the reasons for his decision and could make no argument to keep him.
Whether you liked his style of flagging or not, he was dependable and consistent. We were fortunate to have a dedicated flagman all these years. I belive we owe Eldon a great deal of gratitude for all the time he has put in. Being a flagman is not easy, that being said, here we are without one, members will have to step up and volunteer to fill the vacancy.
