Important Information Regarding CAMS License Applications for Top Gear Scout 2020

Posted on by Top Gear Scout

We have been in discussions with Motorsport Australia in regards to the Junior licenses for Top Gear Scout 2020 now that we have had to postpone the event.

The decision has been made to halt processing the licenses until a new date is set, when we have a new date Motorsport Australia will then process all the licenses to ensure you can get the maximum usage out of the 12 Month License.

If you are unable to attend the future dated Top Gear Scout then we will be able to issue a refund for the license.

If you require a license earlier then please get in touch with us directly rather than Motorsport Australia.

Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

Thanks,
Tom Maddison

Important Information Regarding Top Gear Scout 2020

Posted on by Top Gear Scout

Dear Top Gear Scout Participant, Leader or Parent,

The COVID-19 situation is evolving rapidly, and Scouts Victoria continues to adapt our response in line with changing advice and the latest situation.

I regret to have to inform you that we have made the difficult decision to postpone Top Gear Scout 2020.

We are very sorry to have to make this call but in the end it came down to a few major points:

a) The safety and welfare of all Participants, Leaders and the event team,

b) We wanted to give you maximum warning so you can change your travel plans,

c) There was a financial risk to the event as next week we had to order some $40,000 worth of food & hire equipment.

We will definitely run this event later in the year and you’ll be the first to hear of the new plans.

At present we are holding everyone’s applications and fees, to minimise the work of cancelling and then having to re-do the whole application process (for us, and for you).

We will be back in touch with a further update, when the COVID-19 situation is clearer, and we can safely set a new date.

If you need to be in touch in the meantime, please drop me an email at [email protected]

I imagine you are disappointed – as we are – and we thank you for your understanding.

The welfare of all Scouts, young and old, remains our top priority.

Tom Maddison
State Leader – Top Gear
