Association appeals for MGP marshals

Wednesday, 8 August 2012 01:00

The chairman of the Marshals Association has told 3FM they need 500 volunteers for the Manx Grand Prix or the event won’t go ahead.

Terry Holmes is appealing for people to come forward with the first practice session now just 10 days away.

He explained how anyone interested can sign up and the importance of the role (see audio).

And there’ll be more on the MGP on Friday’s TVIM about the new changes to the event.
