    Hello LCs,

    -Register for the AB Cup 1 & 2/ NORAM/Youth Olympic Games Trials/Alberta Winter Games Trials (Saturday only). Details on our home page. The deadline is Wednesday, December 2.

    – All athletes that are trying out for AWG (Juvenile and younger) can register now through the AWG website at the following link: http://www.albertagames.com/default.aspx?p=albertawintergamesregistration .

    -We will email a wax recommendation for the weekend on Thursday when we have a more accurate forecast.

    -Race details will be posted on the forum Friday and Saturday evenings around 8pm after the Team Captain’s Meetings.

    -Those who are racing in Edmonton AB Cup3/4 need to book your hotel soon. The group booking rooms will be released on Dec 5. Call the Holiday Inn to book 780-440-5000 or 1-877-711-7070
