As a newly minted driver and not an NER member, I can say that if it weren't for the LRP school in June, I would still be *anxiously* waiting for another school to get signed off. I bought the car in March, and there was no way to turn it around in a couple weeks then tow 6+ hours south having never run the car (that would be either Summit or NJMP). Memorial Day was a Glen event, so that knocked NHMS out.
To all of the NER volunteer who put on the school, thanks! I hope that you guys do end up holding it next year.
PS I've heard rumor that Glen may not have their fall school next year. I know that has been mentioned a few times as an alternative for students. Not to jump on a soapbox, but holding schools, in general, are an SCCA problem (not a specific region problem). I don't know of a single school that "makes" money on its own, but you'll never get new drivers if you don't hold any schools.
