Race Season Updates

 
TRi KiDS Okanagan and TRi KiDS Calgary 

We are so excited to be heading west again for two races in July.  This season marks the 4th year in the beautiful Okanagan, home of our Title Sponsor SunRype. Our first TRi KiDS race in Alberta will be a highlight of our season....in fact all TRi KiDS races make it on that list! 
There are a few deadlines approaching for both TRi KiDS Okanagan and TRi KiDS Calgary to be aware of:

TRi KiDS Okanagan:  The deadline to have your athlete's name printed on their race bib is Sunday, July 6th.  Athletes registered before this date will have their first name printed on their bib.  Online registration closes on Sunday, July 13th.  In person registration will be accepted during race kit pick up on Saturday, July 19th if the race has not reached maximum capacity. There is a $5 fee added to in person registration. A reminder that last year's race sold out!

TRi KiDS Calgary:  The deadline to register for first names printed on race bibs is Sunday, July 13th.  Online registration closes for TRi KiDS Calgary on Sunday, July 20th.  There are less than 100 spots remaining for the inaugural TRi KiDS Calgary race.
 
We Need Volunteers! Please consider joining us as a volunteer this season. We assign volunteers around their childrens' race times so you won't miss them, and you'll have a great time helping out other TRi KiDS!  Visit our volunteer page  to register. 

 

We hope your preparations for your TRi KiDS race are going well.  Please take some time to check bikes and helmets for proper fit before the race. Follow this link to a great video on helmet fitting and the four Ss of bike helmet safety.

 

Have a safe and enjoyable Canada Day!

Okanagan Energy

When your days are jam-packed, enjoy a healthy boost with a SunRype Okanagan

Energy bar. Full of fruit, whole grains, sunflower, flax, dark chocolate chips, and SunRype's Okanagan Energy blend of pea protein, green tea and ginseng to provide a safe and natural energy boost.

 

We use pea protein instead of soy of whey, because it is an easily digestible, natural source of protein with a low potential for allergic responses.  Pea protein is also dairy and cholesterol free and non-GMO.

   

These power-packed bars contain 7 grams of protein and are a source of fibre and iron, and contain no preservatives and nothing artificial.  Plus, they are nut free and taste absolutely amazing!

 

Go on... live, laugh, jump, play, thrive!

The SunRype TRi KiDS Triathlon Series continues to support BC Children's Hospital and the work they do for children. We've added a new partner this season - Autism Speaks Canada. Autism Speaks Canada is dedicated to funding global research into the causes, prevention, treatments and cure for autism. 

  

Funds raised by TRi KiDS go directly to the Child Life Program at BCCH. Child Life is a comprehensive program that helps kids and families cope with distressing events through therapeutic and recreational play. With your help, patients can have the 

most positive experience possible during their stay at BC Children's Hospital.  

 

Remember, athletes who raise a minimum of $40 for BCCH or Autism Speaks Canada will be entered in the season-ending draw to win one of two Springfree Trampolines for their backyard. One entry per athlete. 

 

TRi KiDS athletes have already raised over $6,500 this season.  Thank you for your support.  Learn more here.
