Hello Heat Fans,
We have decided to Postpone the Team Night for two weeks because of the heat concerns; July 12th is the next Team Night. L2C will still run Tuesday June 29th at 7 am from my house. Wednesday we are off to Whistler for the BC ski team camp.

Manning Training Camp Details
- July 5-8th 2021
- Monday July 5th 2021 meet at 10:30 am the Resort Hotels 7500 BC-3, Manning Park, BC V0X 1R0. Please be on time as there is no service in the park that I am aware of. Carpools from Kelowna should be on the road by 7:30 am.
- I would like to start up the trail at 11 am. Pack trail food, a Lunch and 2 litres of water (I use a Camel back). No your Swix fanny belt is not enough water; many found this out the hard way in previous years.
