Expectations for attending camp:

  • Every kid has a good, safe working bike with gears. We suggest taking to bike shop for check over if you aren’t sure.If this is a barrier, please do not hesitate to reach out to Coach Heather (heather.helzer@turnagaintraining.com). We have bikes to loan out, and other families are willing to help those in need.
  • Every kid has a helmet, water bottle with water, backpack with snacks, possible layers if weather looks unpredictable, and anything they might need
  • We recommend elastic laces in kids shoes for transition practice games and Friday’s race.
