Hello Biathlon Families!
The registration for the first BIATHLON BC Cup in less than 2 months(!) will be opening soon. Here are the accommodation details for the race.
Who:
This race is a good event for the L2C, T2T (armband) and Master’s groups
Location of Race:
Whistler Olympic Park – Venue of the 2010 Winter Olympics
Dates:
- Plan to be at the Biathlon range on Friday Dec 17 for official training at 12:30
- Plan on returning to Kelowna after the awards ceremony on Sunday Dec 19
Accommodations: At away races, we prefer to stay as a team at the same accommodations in order to simplify pre-race meetings and to build team spirit. These away races can be a lot of fun.
For this event, the host organizing committee has arranged an accommodation/catering service through the Whistler Athletes Center. and the Whistler Food Company. The Whistler Athlete’s centre is a dorm-style accommodation with single occupancy or double occupancy options. The Whistler Food Company does a pretty good job with catered meals for athletes. Biathlon BC has been using them for their training camps.
Bookings will include accommodations as well as dinner on Nov 17, breakfast and dinner on Nov 18 and breakfast on Nov 19. Please review the flyer below for full details.
