SUNDAY JULY 31st - Sprint Practice
WAS AMAZING!!!
We estimate that we had at least 100 athletes show up Sunday morning between 8-12 to preview the courses and practice transition. People came from as far away as Indianapolis and Kalamazoo.
Thanks to Don & Charmayne (Eagle Lake Marine) Pete Colan (Spin Zone) and Bethany Cockburn & Mike Atkins for their hard work and expertise in putting this on.
There is no question that were doing this again next year.
If you still have questions come to the "Transition Clinic" at packet pickup on Friday evening.

PICTURES 2011
We had several photographers running around the venue taking as many shots as possible. Most were amateurs but we had a professional who donated his time and efforts to provide you with quality, professional shots. Steve Toepp of Midwest Photographics has submitted his pictures for you to see and download. While you are at his site you might like to look at some of the other work he has done.
