Apex K Slalom Race Good for Baldy Racers

It was a competitive line-up for the time-trail slalom race at Apex on Sunday. A new format "coaches" race utilized two Brower wireless timers (one belonging to Baldy Racers). K1s and 2s ran simultaneously on two separate courses which allowed racers to get in four timed runs (2 AM and 2 PM). Results were tabulated using the best morning and best afternoon run.
Our two newest 10 year old K racers Agatka Koczij and Daniel Everton placed 23rd in girls and 24th in the boys category. With over 30 racers in each category, our rookie racers faired very well in the big leagues. The big result of the day went to Nils Rauhala who pulled off a rocket of a second run to put him in 8th overall. Not far behind was Nicholas Everton in10th and Ben Myers in 16th. All in all a good day for the Baldy Crew.
Results in pdf format are on the Big White Racers sight click link for k1 boys or k1 girls

Please send pictures if you have them so I can post here.

Officials Course in Oliver Tonight

Just a reminder that we have our Level 1 Officials Course taking place tonight at the Oliver Parks and Recreation Meeting Room #1 from 7pm to 10pm. It looks like we'll have at least 14 people attending which will give us a good base of knowledge to run our South Zone RTANG race on February 5th. Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
