INFERNO 2009 New s

Because the 2008 turn out in racers and visitors to the ravine on race day we are considering some changes to the 2009 event to accommodate the growth. One of the Ideas we are considering is splitting the event into two divisions. An Elite division following the current course or possibly a slightly modified more challenging course finishing in Tuckerman Ravine and a recreational division that will have a slightly easier course that finishes at Wildcat ski area. This would allow us to expand the event and accommodate an unlimited number of contestants. If anyone has any input on improvements to the race for 2009 please e-mail info@friendsoftuckerman.org

FUND TO REPLACE AVALANCHE WARNINGS BOARDS
We have started a new fundraising project to replace the warning boards in the ravine please go to Avalanche Board if you would like to contribute.

VOLUNTEERING YOUR TALENTS AND THE 3 P'S CORP!
Okay we have finally put the finishing touches on the new 3P'S CORP Volunteer section. Check it out the idea here is to recruit people for events or trail work or if you have a special talent that you think can benefit FOTR then let us know and we will try to use it.

We are in need of a web page administrator. If you have skills in this area and want to help out a good cause drop us a line.

Please remember to always check the current weather (there is snow on the mountain) before heading up no matter how nice it may seem out there and always be safe! Looks like winter has set in again!!

I'll be headed up to Maine for the summer after the June board meeting. See you all in the fall.
