We will be having a short meeting for tristate parents this Saturday after practice. We will be going over some program issues and answer questions. We will also be discussing our needs regarding fencing for gate training on Ally Cat. Once the conditions are right the mountain generally gives us sole access to that hill for training in the mornings. It offers the best gate training in Western Ma. Jon Nolting from USSA was very impressed with its terrain challenges. He also noted the need for increased protective netting. We rely too much on coaches and older racers to fence the hill and we lose valuable training time. We will be discussing what can be done to improve the situation.
