The rumors of a summer training trip to Colorado are true! We are in the works of putting everything together, but the trip will be to the Frisco/Breckenridge area west of Denver. The main reason behind this trip is to create goals that are higher and more rewarding as we try to build the programs to a higher level as well. Other schools have done similar trips, so we are hoping it can become a positive.
We have been thinking of trying a trip like this for a few years, but could never come up with a way to make it work. Some basics is that we are going to limit how many we bring since we will be driving out in two 15 passenger vans, so the captains and the coaches have been working on some time standards that are fair in order to make the first group to try this trip. These standards will be adjusted from year to year and will be given at the beginning of the summer for the following year so the runners have goals to aim for for the season. (There will be more details of this as well as more details of the trip and those that are initially invited in the next week or so) So the standard for this years trip will be based on the last CC season, as well as up to two coaches picks for the boys, and two for the girls.
The trip will be near the end of July, and we are hoping to keep the overall cost per person to under $100 for 5 days of training, 2 days of transportation and lodging.
As mentioned, there will be more details soon, along with the initial list. We will need to have a few parents come along as well for helping with driving and chaperoning, so keep that in mind as well.
Thanks,
Denny
