Hello T3 & LC’s –
I would like to confirm that the club will be attending the BC Championships in Kelowna, BC on Feb 28-Mar 2. The event is held over 3 days with 2 individual races and 1 relay. The trails in Telemark are fantastic to ski. The BC Championships are typically well attended by BC clubs.
The idea behind attending this event is three folds:
1) Help athletes prepare for the XC Nationals. This is best done with high level racing.
2) Finish the year with a strong out of town event for those not attending the XC Nationals.
3) Continue challenging yourself in getting better at preparing and racing
Basic details:
• We will leave Canmore mid-day on Thursday February 27, in time for a quick spin on the trails upon arrival
• Races are Fri-Sat-Sun
• We will return after the race on Sunday.
I have booked 6 condos at the Cove Lakeside Resort (http://www.covelakeside.com). We are able to do some cooking on this trip in order to keep the cost down.
We are not planning on renting a bus for this trip, we are relying on parents to drive the athletes. Come and hang out and ski for the weekend! You can also race as there are master’s classes…
We need to hear from you soon to complete the hotel booking (especially if we need more units). Please let us know on the usual club event spreadsheet but also on the following doodle so we know who can drive. Please let us know by January 15th.
