-Don't forget the Steamboat Springs Stage Race on Labor Day weekend. Registration is open and their late fee goes into effect on Saturday, August 1st so register here and save yourself some $$$.
 
-If you know someone racing cross only, make sure to have them purchase their license now to avoid one day fees at their first cross race.
 
-Anyone who forgot to pick up their State Championship medal or vest can contact Yvonne Van Gent to arrange a pick-up.
