Silent auction and casino night for youth development

Triathlon BC is hosting a Silent Auction and Casino night in Victoria on April 24th  in support of youth development.  The event is from 7 pm to 10 pm at the Strawberry Vale Community Hall at 11 High Street, Victoria. Tickets are $20 for adults and $5.00 for kids.  As you might know this is our 2nd annual event and we are anticipating it will be bigger and better than last year.  There will be some great auction items, great fun at the casino tables, good food  and members of the National Development Team will be running the casino tables, which last year proved to be a big hit. In addition Giant has donated this great looking Tri bike for the event, to be auctioned, with minimum bids starting at $750.00. Retail for this bike is around $3,000 !!! 

100% of the proceeds go to youth development in the Province. 

 I have to say, Barb Sharpe is doing such an awesome job supporting the triathlon junior development in BC and our sport certainly need more people like her involved. I donated a couple of gift certificates too, one for a bike fit and the other for race day nutrition assessment and strategies. 

I hope to see LOTS of people there!
