  • This is the final week of the summer schedule. Whoa. On 8/24 we’ll shift to the fall schedule, which is outlined here.

  • The Singletrack Shootout is this Sunday. This is a great opportunity to try biathlon — no experience required but you do need to preregister. Sign-up here. Or drop a line to our volunteer coordinator if you can help out.

JUNIORS:

  • Great work to the Bethel Camp squad. We will get around to invoicing you soon. Invoices will come from Concrete Foundation or something similar - yes, that’s a real thing.

  • Fall sports: these are getting underway! Please communicate with coaches about what your fall sports life is like so that we can support you as best as possible.

U14s:

  • Way to keep hopping into the junior workouts and crushing it!

BKL:

  • Attendance form? Please? Please!

  • Practices will continue happening on Thursday afternoons into the fall.

MASTERS/ADULTS:

  • Business as usual for y’all this week.

BIATHLETES:

  • Practice changes this week:

    • Adults: no practice or Open Range due to the Singletrack Shootout (which we hope you’ll sign up for!)

    • Final Jr/U14 1-on-1s for the summer will be Aug 20.

    • Like all club programs, we’ll shift to the fall practice schedules next week.

  • Race Opportunities:

    • Singletrack Shootout novice races are scheduled for Aug 23 & Oct 4. These are suitable for all of you. Preregistration required.

  • Weekly Dryfire ideas

    • 3-4 days per week if you own your own rifle at home.

    • Aiming - pick a position

      • 3x3 minute holds in position. Set a timer to beep every 10 seconds. Alternate 10s relaxed breathing with 10s intense fine aiming control on center of target.
