				Help TAT win SMW Club Championship for 2008. TAT is participating in the SouthMidWest REgion - USATriathlon Club Champion points race for 2008. All you need to do is be on the official TAT Club-Member Roster at least Three days before a USAT Sanctioned race in the SMW Region (or boarering state). We have a dedicated member who will take it from there--if you are doing a local race, he'll find your name and results. If you go to some race farther out, let him know you'll be racing so he can confirm your finish. Everyone gets half a point just for participating, and winners of age groups get more. But, every point helps. The score table for Spring Fever is HERE, just to give you an idea. For more information, or to tell us you race schedule, contact Robert Flagor.
