Here is the plan for this weekend.
Everyone will need to bring all your breakfast and lunch food. There is NOWHERE to buy anything so bring it! Your awesome assistant coach, Andrew, has made lasagna for you on Friday night and Rachel & Christi will get food for grilling on Saturday night. You will be asked to assist in cooking and cleanup.
Before we leave it would be a GREAT idea to watch the video to the right explaining the types of hillbounding. We won't be doing skate bounding this weekend but the rest is great!
We'll all be riding in Zima & leaving right around 10am, or whenever is the soonest we can get Matt in the vehicle!
Bring snacks - there is nothing to eat or buy between here and Lusk so bring food!
