EVERYONE:

1. We’re starting up this week with just the juniors—the rest of y’all to follow soon!

2. Registration is slated to open on Wednesday, 5/1. We’re tweaking some things so there’s a chance it won’t quite be ready to go, but we’ll keep you posted. There’s not a wild rush for summer reg (we generally don’t have a waitlist) so don’t stress about it.

3. Program evaluations can be completed here.

JUNIORS:

1. Attendance form - you know it! It’s particularly helpful as we learn who’s doing what this spring.

2. Spring check-in meetings: part of the program evaluation (linked above) for juniors is reflecting on your season a bit, and then we want to talk to you about it. You’ll get a link to the schedule to sign up for a spot when you do your program eval. Don’t stress, we’ll keep adding times. The signup sheet seems to be giving some people trouble, so let us know if you can’t access it. We would like to have short (30 min) meetings with everyone in the junior program this spring.

3. Summer/year plan: it’s very much a draft at this point. But in the second tab of the shared plan (below), you’ll find some thoughts penciled in there.

4. Annual/semi-annual bloodwork: as teenage endurance athletes, it’s a really good idea to get bloodwork done at least once a year to check for things like low iron. Some of you are all over this. Others likely have never had this done before. Please ask your doctor about it and talk to coaches if you have questions. While female athletes are more prone to low iron, it can happen to male athletes, too, so we encourage everyone to get tested.

5. Rollerskis: we’ll send out details soon for those of you who want to buy new gear or rent it through the club. We haven’t gotten quite that far yet.
