2005 IKF Region 7 Sprint Coordinator Announcement
The International Kart Federation is proud to announce the appointment of Mr. Don St. Ours as the 2005 Region 7 Sprint Coordinator. The organization has spent considerable time searching for a replacement for Mr. John Podlesni, the 2003-2004 Region 7 Sprint Coordinator.

In IKF's efforts to be proactive with the Regions, we feel that we need strong forward-thinking people in the Coordinator positions. Don will run the Region using a team management concept, with the full support of the IKF in this approach.

Don is an active member of the IKF, with two sons who participate in Region 7 Sprint series. In the past, he was instrumental setting up and running a National Fast Street Car Drag Racing organization; his duties with the organization led to the racing organization's exposure on ESPN and over 70 magazines in a short period of time. He has been instrumental in organizing other team sport associations.

Don is fully aware of the time and effort needed to put together a winning team and sponsorship program required for a successful series.

We hope that everyone will give the same support as the IKF in making this appointment successful and producing a successful race season.

Thank you, in advance, for your support.

Mr. Jim McMillan, IKF President
