WIsport Gravel Pit Call

Greetings Gravel Pit Volunteers

Winter has arrived, but not much snow. A little rock skiing and bushwacking, but that’s about it. Then it rained last week. The registration limit of 9200 was reached in November. There has been one staff meeting in Hayward, and it all looks like another great year for the 39^th American Birkebeiner on the 25^th of February, 2012.

You may have heard of the unfortunate accidental death of one of the Founders, David Landgraf. He was the first Founder to get to the Gravel Pit every year. Top 200 skier. I sent condolences to the family from the crew at the Pit and said we will miss seeing ski through, still at an elite pace. That leaves only two who have done every Birkie.

Telemark is back in operation, so that negative aspect of the race is off the table for this year.

There will be no parking permits needed this year, and food stop operation should be the same as previous years.

The previously promised building for the Gravel Pit was axed for this year by the Board. Since the GP parking lot is used for a CAMBA bike trail access point, and is so remote, it was feared that vandalism would be a problem. Something permanent is still being discussed, but we’ll have to wait and see.

If you got this via USPS mail, please return the postcards by the end of January, and I’ll get final information, maps and frequently asked question crib sheets sent out.

If you got this electronically, email me back by the end of January that you are planning to be at the Gravel Pit in 2012, how many are coming, and I’ll email the final details.

Don’t be afraid to recruit a few extra people to help. Last year it was capped at 9200 also, and some extra help would be good for that manic middle couple of hours.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the Gravel Pit on Feb. 25, 2012.

Thanks again for volunteering to bring the best of Wisconsin

hospitality to the world at the Birkie……………
