December 9th Update

Please volunteer to ED or CS. You get three other days to have fun! And now you have more choices. Seize the day!

Updates:

  1. Boreal ski resort (now known as Woodward Tahoe) has given us the go-ahead to stage from their lot — yay. We will now submit to USFS for their permit.
  2. Mapping: The mapping committee, led by director Matej Sebo, has allocated funding for Tahoe mapping. They asked for input, and I recommended Burton Creek for updating.
  3. No new updates on ED or CS. Just Steve Gregg signed up at the moment.

Schedule July 25–28:

Friday: Boreal, format to be determined by CS; possibly Score-O
Saturday or Sunday: Burton Creek; NRE or Summer Series
Sunday or Saturday: CS choices: Spooner Lake or Northstar or Sagehen/Little Truckee; Summer Series or NRE
Monday: Sprint at Donner Memorial State Park, CS = Steve Gregg

Thank you. The sooner we can lock in CS/ED, the more we can do to make this event successful and enjoyable for all. We're planning to get folks to travel from other areas. Enjoy your friends from LAOC, SDO, CROC, COC, Griz-O, TSN, GPHXO, GCO, NAV-X, and other places.
