Hello Gators,
This is mostly being posted for those that are not part of the Facebook
group and may have missed yesterday's survey (plus a "status as of now" and
additional details are included here that were not in  the survey)...
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING, YOUR REPLY IS REQUESTED BY FRIDAY,
MAY 27 (TOMORROW)...
Way back in the November/December time frame we raised the idea of having a
club event at the Lake George Triathlon Festival taking place in Lake
George, NY (300 mile/5 hr drive from Limerick/Royersford area) over Labor
Day Weekend. There seemed to be enough interest to proceed, but a lot of
time has passed between then and now, so the purpose of this email is to
see what the current interest level is. If you are interested in
participating, please reply with the events in which you plan to
participate so that we can see if there is still enough interest to proceed
(you can select multiple options if you plan to participate on both
Saturday and Sunday). And if you are responding both for you and others
(spouse, kids, etc.), please include some details in a comment.  We'll
assess where we are over the weekend and provide an update by early next
week as to how we'd like to move forward.

Some additional details...

  • Saturday, 9/3 events include an Olympic triathlon (individual and
    relay) and kids races
  • Sunday, 9/4
    • Morning/afternoon: Event is a half Ironman distance triathlon
      (individual and relay)
    • Evening: Team party/picnic
  • Link to event website...

  • Registration fees (USAT membership required; all fees increase $10-$25
    after next Tuesday, 5/31)...
    • Lake George Olympic:
      • Individual: $125
      • Relay, 2 person: $180
      • Relay, 3 person: $210
    • Big George Half:
      • Individual: $175
      • Relay, 2 person: $225

    • King George Olympic/Half combo:

Brief update based on the Facebook replies so far, here's where we stand...

  • Saturday, 9/3: So far we have one athlete competing individually in
    the Olympic event and one athlete available for a relay team
  • Sunday, 9/4: So far it appears that we may have three relay teams for
    the Half Ironman distance event

Let me know if you have any questions.
