Counting Down the Days to TRi KiDS 2016!
Welcome to the 2016 TRi KiDS season. Now entering our 8th year we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support and, with the start of the season around the corner, we have a few updates to share with you:
The good news is that Nelson Pool in Burlington is scheduled to be repaired and re-opened, however not for the 2016 season. TRi KiDS Burlington will be a RUN-BIKE-RUN event (DUATHLON) open to ages 6 to 15. There will not be a 3 to 5 year old age category for this race. We look forward to returning to a triathlon when Nelson Pool re-opens.
There will be an additional race in Oakville at Appleby College. TRi KiDS Oakville I will be on the traditional date of July 3rd and TRi KiDS Oakville II will be on August 14th. Both races are expected to sell out early.
We are looking forward to returning to the Terwillegar Recreation Centre on June 26th for our second year of TRi KiDS Edmonton. The support and enthusiasm last year was tremendous.
As SunRype celebrates their 70th Anniversary we will be back in Kelowna for TRi KiDS Okanagan in July, then on to Calgary, AB.
TRi YOUTH is our new initiative this season. TRi YOUTH events are for athletes between 14 and 17 years interested in a racing experience similar to a Give-It-A-Tri or Sprint Triathlon found at adult triathlon events. Learn more about this exciting new initiative here.
Dates and locations are up to date on our website. Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for all the latest news and announcements. The links are posted at the bottom of this newsletter.
We look forward to the 2016 season, meeting new TRi KiDS and reuniting with past participants.
Canada's only triathlon series JUST FOR KiDS!
