Club Update 12-11-2009

Hello Club Members –



The date and location have been set for the Triathlon Club’s season opener party – January 23, 2010 at the O Aces bar/restaurant. The club will provide the food with a no host bar – you will receive an Evite soon on that. (or check out triguy's post on the message board http://www.lvtriclub.com/tribb/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1030&sid=615fbef9a765e11f1c595a6c13bfb2b4)



Sorry for the lack of communication recently. Our major effort over the last 30 days was to get the “join page” up and running. (we are almost there) That page required modification to handle a new club benefit with membership.

(Conceptual proof of last years jersey - 2010 will be the same with sponsor logo changes)
I don’t know if you were aware but the Board voted to provide every membership with a club cycling jersey. Yes that is right with every individual ($55) or family membership ($65) you will receive a Sugoi cycling jersey – pretty cool. We actually have to pay Sugoi approximately $50 per jersey. We have conserved the clubs funds and have received generous support from our club sponsors in the past and so we are in a position to do this. One of the important things that you will be responsible for is specifying your jersey size – if you have any concerns either try a Sugoi jersey on at a merchant or we will have some sizes available at the season opener party on January 23, 2010. We want to make you happy so please make sure you know your size. We will not be stocking gear to any extent this year – sign up by January 23, 2010 and we will make your jersey part of our first order. (If you want tri shorts, cycling shorts, or a racing top you must order them in advance as well – we are currently developing the procedures for that ).


We have tentative dates for all of the Club triathlons next year: March 7, 2010 - Duathlon (includes kids event); May 16, 2010 Sprint Triathlon (includes kids event); July 10, 2010 Sprint Triathlon (doesn’t not include kids event due to potential heat/health issues for them); October 3, 2010 Sprint Triathlon (includes kids event). All of our events are !!Free!! to all the membership - most events like this are $50-$90 per person - and don't feature Nick G - "The Voice of the Las Vegas Tri Club"


e-mail me with any questions or concerns – have a great holiday season!!
