Hey team,

Nice to see a bunch of you again this past week for training! Here’s what’s up this coming week:

1. Attendance form! Still gotta do it. We’re getting the link to you in a different way but it actually lives in the SAME SPOT on the interwebs so you can in fact access it however you want.

2. Training plan: also still in the same place, but also embedded right on the team page.

3. Junior/U14 biathlon starts this week!

4. Lake Placid Camp for Juniors: some of you have been asking about this. We will once again have a junior training camp in Lake Placid August 14-18. Cost and details to come, but save the date if that’s of interest. This camp is intended for second-year U16s and older juniors. If you’re a first-year U16, come talk to us to see if this is a good fit for you.

5. Schedule tweaks: Friday practice was hugely popular, so we are gonna stick with yes to practice on Friday; no to having practice Thursday through the end of the school year. Also not that this week, Tuesday is canceled due to coach First Aid training.

6. Slack: kindly join this. You don’t need a phone; you don’t need an app; you don’t need to interact with it like social media; you can send notifications however you want. Coaches will use the primary channels to communicate about all kinds of stuff. The invitation is in your email.

7. Goal-setting: many of you have done this, but if not, fill out this form! And then set up a meeting withs us to discuss. Times for this week are here.

   This year, submitting your goals form and then scheduling a review with coaches will be required to participate in training after June 1 (whoah that’s coming up fast!). Not kidding.

8. Spring/summer program registration: lots of you have done this and that’s great! If not, please do sooner rather than later if possible. Registration closes June 1. If you’ve applied for a scholarship and are waiting to hear back, they should get reviewed this week—thanks for your patience.

9. Rollerskis: zomg some of you are rollerskiing on Sunday. Better complete those rental orders if you need to.

See you soon!
