Happy New Year to you all.
Trust you all had / are still having and enjoyable break over the festive
season.
Welcome to our new members and welcome to Darwin to those recently
arrived.
Our 2017 events get underway this weekend with the running of Aquathlon #3
(which incorporates the NT Aquathlon C'ships) at the Waterfront Lagoon
(note change from Lake Alexander) and we look forward to catching up with
you all there.

6. Check our
Facebook page for athlete results from various events since last E
News.
7. Reminder re timing chips: new members are issued with their
timing chip free of charge & collect & sign for at their first
event.
8. If you lose/misplace your issued timing chip please purchase
a replacement chip ($15) when entering your next event.
9. It's your responsibility to bring your timing chip. Issuing
a temporary chip takes time & makes results harder to collate and if
the numbers turning up events sans chips continues to increase, we will
have to revert back to our "no chip, no time" rule. Thanks for
your understanding.
10. Parents of juniors, we have a number of kids tri tops and tri
shorts available. Your NT Sports
Vouchers can be used for these.
PIC OF THE WEEK:
Our new club trailer has arrived thanks to funding
received
via Dept Sport & Recreation
Cheers,
