Feb 4 Jones Race
(by Roy Loman, 1/29/2007)

There has been much confusion over the coming week-ends races.

On the VARA web-page calendar, the Sunday Race is listed incorrectly on Monday.

It is also confusing in the information posted there.

It will be a Jr. 4 (ONLY) Super G. This is different than in past years. ALL KILLINGTON JR. 4 RACERS WILL BE REGISTERED IN THE SUNDAY FEB 4TH RACE AND CAMP AT OKEMO.

ALL KILLINGTON JR. 5 RACERS WILL TRAIN AT KILLINGTON ON SUNDAY, FEB 4th.

Also new this year is a state-wide speed (Super G) camp to be held at Okemo on Monday the 5th and Tuesday the 6th. This camp is to be attended by invitation only and the invitations will be made known following the race on Sunday.

Below is the informtion that we recieved about the camp today. We will update you with any information we get as it arrives:
