Logs Rocks and Steel proudly supports YMCA Strong Kids
We're thrilled to announce YMCA Strong Kids as the Charity our event will support. We couldn't dream of an organization more closely aligned with our ethos; sending under-privileged kids to camp where they'll experience many of the sports practiced in Logs Rocks and Steel is just perfect. Those interested in raising funds for Strong Kids can sign-up, and create their own online " Storyteller" profile, which allows users to manage fund-raising efforts in an online environment. |
World Multisport Championships Congratulations
A huge congratulations to Barb Campbell and Jack Van Dorp for their respective efforts in tackling the Coast to Coast World Multisport Championships in New Zealand this past February. Barb and Jack both won free entry, plus $1000 cash sponsored by GUATS at Logs Rocks and Steel this past summer. Jack bettered his 12th place finish from 2010 by cracking the top 10 and placing 9th this year. He was also the highest ranked international competitor. Barb's Coast to Coast journey ended as she barely missed a race-course cut-off late in the event (over 30% of participants DNF in this grueling, aptly named "longest day" event). For blow-by-blow accounts of both Jack and Barb's experiences, please visit their respective blogs: vandorpracing.com Barbs training log |
