Hi All,
Wanted to let everyone know that the Junior Team will be having a fundraiser at the Georgia Navigator cup. We will be putting on three training exercises to be done after Saturdays completion.
There will probably be a start window from about 12pm-4pm.
We will have:

A sprint 2.5-3k

3k Streamered run to see how fast you can run through the woods. Very excited about this because as part of the new standards for Juniors to get on the standing team there are woods running times that we would like them to meet. So come see if you can meet or pass those standards.

1.5k confusing course with lot of lines crossing over, and double use of control. "Can you pay attention at a high speed?"

it will be 5$ per training: But there will be deals

Juniors can do one for free, the second one costs 5$ but if they can make it to a third one it will also be free.

Any Non junior it will be 5$ for each and 3 for 10$.

The money will be going towards getting the New developments in the junior program, and helping kids get to Europe this summer, so any extra donations are appreciated.

I hope everyone comes up to get a little extra training in. If we get enough interest I may see if we can leave the stuff up for after Sunday races as well.

There will also be junior course review TBA on Saturday around the start of the training exercises. Sunday will be 30min before awards.
Please let as many people as possible know about this. So come out shake off some of that holiday dust and see how fast you can run. Thanks from JTESC.

Also, the 3k woods run, can be run in a group. So if you want to challenge each other in a 3k woods run go ahead, lets see who comes out of the woods first. It will be 2 times 1.5k loops, plenty of spectating.

I should be able to help if I get off the course in a decent time.

Just to be clear... "A sprint" does not mean "sprint distance A-race"

Also, x$ = $x :-D
