*Important Note*

You must be a member of the IDNIYRA and in good standing to compete.  If you haven't paid your 2007 dues, you will have to pay when you register.  Please do not send your membership fees to the NA Treasure at this time.

You must show proof of insurance when you register ($300,000 personal liability, most home owners insurance has this).   If you have a 'N' in the insurance column you must bring along insurance documentation!  You can not race with out proof of insurance!

[DN 805]

The check in times for the Worlds and North Americans that appear on this bulletin board appear to be different from the times that appear in the notice of race posted at IDNIYRA.ORG. 

If these changes are to be considered official, then the changes should be identified as a change to the Notice of Race, Section 5, Schedule of Events.

Also, please note that in the NOR posted at IDNIYRA.ORG  in the schedule of events the year is 2007 on some lines and 2004 on other lines.

I'm afraid I do not have my Runner Tracks on my desk at this time so do not know if the NOR mailed to members agrees with the NOR at IDNIYRA.ORG.

regards
Jane Pegel, DN 805

 Notice:
 The registration time on Saturday Feb. 17 for the World Championship has been changed to 7:00 to 9:00 PM.  For those still on the road, late check-in can be done by phone, call either of these two numbers.
                  419-356-8602          or          419-410-4326
 
 This was done because of the difficult travel conditions for participants east of Albany, NY.
                                       Have fun, think ice,
