Good Afternoon,
Hope this finds you all well. For those of you new to the tri-club and getting an email from me for the first time, thank you for taking a leap of faith and joining our little club. You will get emails from me twice per month but we also strongly encourage you to link up with us on facebook. That is where all the good stuff goes down. If you haven't signed up for our club yet please do it sooner than later. Price will increase to $50 on April 1. If you were a 2013 member you will continue to get emails until April 1, after that we need to create our 2014 list. Click here to sign up for the
MHWTC.

4) This year we have PLENTY of room. We are going to have one room for the presentation and the other for socialization. We realize for many of you this will be your fifth year at a kick off meeting so we are giving you the option to join us and listen or go to the next room and catch up with old friends!
5) Newbies sit up front.
6) We will be reviewing the basics of the club and and the sport of triathlon. We will have TWO NEWBIE NIGHTS where we drill down to all the specifics of triathlon.

Thank you to everyone who is donating a basket. I just need to know what is in your basket by Feb 1st and if at all possible I would like to have your basket by Feb 7th. An email did go out with all of the info. Don't worry, I will send out one last reminder. I am so annoying!
MY RESOLUTION
My resolution tickets will be given out at the kick-off. We are splitting the pot of $1200, three ways. Each winner will get $400 cash on the spot! Don't forget to bring your check off sheet. All of the info can be found on our website. Reminder will be sent out- ditto annoying.
2014 Race Calendar
Our 2014 Race Calendar is almost finalized. I want to thank Correy Jeffers and Shannon Costa for working on this. Our race calendar will have the dates of all the major races this season and links to sign up. It is always nice to do a race when you see, oh lets say...100 other team members! Speaking of race, the Broad Street Run lottery will open on Saturday February 1 and close on Tuesday, Feb 13. Last year we all got in ( about 140 of us) but each year it does get bigger and bigger, so there are no guarantees. I am being extremely optimistic and booking four buses though. Training plan for Broad Street is on our website under Training.
Looking to Sell Sports Equipment? Tri Clothes too big...too small? We have a MHWTC trading post on facebook. I sold about $300 worth of stuff in ten minutes. If you would like to sell something sports related please
