CELEBRATION DAY

Saturday, March 1, 2025
By David and JoAnn Gattman

Thank you for running today’s Saturday Series Rally. We hope you had a good time. Eighteen teams entered. Five teams took the day off, so thirteen teams ran the rally.

Thank you to our Saturday Series rallymasters, David and JoAnn Gattman. It takes quite a bit of time and persistence to put together an event like this. Please join us in thanking them for their contribution to Cascade’s rally program.

Now, congratulations to the top rally finishers in each class!

First overall and first in the Equipped Category is the team of Bob Morseburg and Cheri Eddy in Car #20 with a total of 16 points over 15 scored legs. They zeroed six legs, got one point on each of five legs, two twos, a three and a four. We’ve come to expect no less, but still it’s amazing.

Second overall and second in the Equipped Category is the team of Paul Eklund and Yulia Smolyansky in Car #17 with a score of 55 points. They zeroed three legs, got single-digit scores on eleven legs, plus a ten. Nice to see this team rallying with Cascade again.

Third overall and first in the SOP Class is the team of Alexander Castaneda and Eric Hanson in Car #4 with a score of 60. Wow! They came close to matching second place Equipped. Nice job, guys!

Other top finishers in their class:

Third GPS --- Car #14 Robert Paxman and Kathy Sacry
Second SOP – Car #11 Bill Kayser and Felix Kayser
Third SOP – Car #16 Edmund Frank and Jo Su

RALLY SCHOOL 2025

Saturday, February 22, 2025
By Monte and Victoria Saager

Thank you for running the Rally School Rally. We hope you had a good time. Twenty-five teams entered. Four teams did not start, so 21 teams ran the rally.

Thank you to our Rally School checkout team, Bill and Kelly Ferber. Please join us in thanking them for their contribution to Cascade’s rally program.

Usually it is at this juncture that we congratulate the top rally finishers. However, the Rally School Rally is a practice rally and your performance on this event does not count toward 2025 Saturday Road Rally Series competition or the CSCC Rally Championship (RRR 7.1). But, top finishers of the Rally School Rally still deserve fame and glory! And a candy bar of course. The taste of victory should always be sweet.

Due to the threat of wintery weather, contestants had two weeks in which to run the Rally School Rally. About half of the teams ran on the originally planned date, Saturday, Feb. 8. Those teams received candy bars at the end for their participation.

Now that all the teams that are going to run have run the rally, it is time to congratulate the top rally finishers!

First overall and first in the SOP class – David and JoAnn Gattman
Second SOP and tied for second overall – Lee and Marc Nielsen
First in the Novice class and tied for second overall – Travis Cothren and William Cundiff
Fourth overall and third SOP – Bill Kayser and Bjorn Freeman-Benson
Fourth SOP and tied for fifth overall – Karisa and Rhys Haydon
First in the Equipped (GPS) class and tied for fifth overall – Paul Eklund and Yulia Smolyansky
