Croixathlon - Results & Photos
Croixathletes one and all-
This is a quick message to share the link for results from Saturday's race--we somehow forgot to mention that at the end of the race. Please check
www.onlineraceresults.com to reveal in your accomplishment.
Camp St. Croix alum Rich Harmer took some beautiful shots of the race. There's a lot of shift through, but when you have a minute, please take a look. If you love a photo, they are available to upload or print for $10 (which we understand is cheap) and Rich will donate ALL of the proceeds to our fundraiser.
