KU Rim Rock Trip

 The KU Trip!  A Tradition! For the past 4 or 5 years, we have made a varsity/jv travel trip to Kansas! It has been our philosophy for LTXC that trips provide a great learning and running experience. We leave on Thursday Sept 20th and race on Friday OR Saturday Sept 19/20. We take a charter bus and leave from the meet on Saturday and arrive back on Saturday night around 10pm

We invite the top 24 (12 boys and 12 girls) to be part of this trip. The trip does involve a cost and that is usually around $400 that covers the bus and the hotel and fee's. If you decide to be part of this event, you will be responsible for the bus cost regardless of other travel plans. The only way we can keep the costs down is to split among the 24 participants. If someone can't go, then we will ask the next runner. The list will be update following the Races on Sept 1st

All Fundraising money will go to the kids who raise it...We may be able to help match some of the funds, depending on how the fundraiser goes...We won't settle our fee's until the first part of October. The total amount needed for each kids is $400

If we have 24 kids, we need
$260 for the bus, $100 for hotel, $40 for a couple of meals and entry fee's. This kids will be responsible for fast food stops and anything extra....

Entries are Due Sept 12th, but I can make some changes. We just want to make sure they get entered. We also have to make sure we have hotel space for everyone that wants to go.

The hotel info is on the website too.
JV races will be Friday Sept 21 and Varsity races are the 22nd

We leave at 6:30 am on Sept 20th and return as soon as the races are over on Saturday, so arrive back on Saturday night Sept 22nd around 10pm at Legend

Email any questions and we will be glad to give more info...As soon as I have the final numbers, we will send out detailed info as well

Thanks for your support in making these memories!
