Monthly Team Meeting at Temperance Hall
It’s almost the first Monday of the month so it’s meeting time… see you all Monday (3/5) at 7:30 at temperance hall.

We’re almost got the art for the jersey finalized, so there’s a chance to change your order. We’ve got some stuff to talk about this time like the new “club” membership level and a couple of new sponsors (on top of the new ones from the last meeting).
I’ll bring the last couple of leftover jersey’s from last year so that any new members planning to race next weekend will have a jersey. if you are planning to head up to camp Hilbert next weekend and need a jersey, let me know and tell me what size you need and we’ll try to get you one (or at least a loaner).
