As always we could never pull off these flawless meets without Reed Laakso's expertise and leadership. Give him a buzz for all your training needs.

Every year we need more and more help and every year our amazing members jump at the chance to volunteer their time during the meet, moving equipment the night before, cleaning up the place afterwards and more. You all make the magic happen.

Also a massive thank you to Dakotah Clement for being our photographer and producing the sick photography work you see here as well as lift shots for all our competitors. Contact her for any of your photography needs: [email protected] or

Last, but certainly not least, mega thanks to Abby O'Brien for again running our Club Championship Raffle. Thanks to her and all of you who bought tickets, it was a huge success and the kitties and doggies at Pope Memorial thank you for it.
