I have always thought that BNI, Save the Salt, or SCTA should include a Save
the Salt fee included with the entry fee. The fee would then pay for a
full-time salt washing station somewhere near the flats exit. Last year I
saw a setup that was intended to do that, but when I drove by many times, it
was not operational. Doing it this way would ensure that vehicles would
leave the salt right there, and do not drive home carrying 100 pounds of
salt. Excess funds go to STS.
I would not mind paying $20-30 extra on the entry fee for this.

Subject: [Land-speed] Saving the Salt and funds for that...
I know others are working very hard to gather funds through donations
for the Save the Salt program. HAs anyone considered just gathering the
aluminum cans from the meets in August, Sept and October? Is this
already being done? Seems like we could have a few smaller bins in the
pits which announce that the cans go to a good purpose. Cans could then
be taken to a recycler for weighing and crushing and whatever else
happens to used cans... How about if each pit had a specific can bag?
And they dumped the can bag daily or however often into the collection
bin(s). Make it a prt of the instructions for entry into these events.
Just a thought
