| Northern Vermont | Mid-Vermont | Southern Vermont |

Schedules

The schedules will be all kept in the main database. By September, the preliminary schedule has been set and posted. By November, the younger racers' events will have been posted. Go to the Event Calendar.



If there is anything else that we can find, dig up, research, or pull out of the back fileroom cabinet under the 32-year-old Funk & Wagnalls, just let us know. Give us a yell: toby@vara.org
