Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2000 2:38 PM Subject: Incline Club Party:-) Its a wrap! The Incline Club tore up the mountain again. We had 8 top 10s, 7 more top 20s, a truckload of people placing in age-groups and boatload of people finishing one or both of the races — now it ‘s time to celebrate!!! WHAT: The annual Incline Club party!!! *** Food & drink *** Pictures of Incline Club runners from the ascent and marathon *** Slide show of Incline Club runners from the Barr Trail Mountain Race *** Winner take all pool tournament *** Hanging out and yacking with other like minded crazies *** And of course club awards to those that made 25 or more workouts WHEN: This Thursday the 24th from 5:30pm till the neighbors call the police! WHO: This is not an exclusive party! Don’t feel like you did not come to enough workouts or whatever — just come. Also feel free to bring friends, significant others, non significant others etc. No one will be turned away! Also don’t stay home just because you would be late or have to leave early. No pets please. Party counts for a “*” for all who come. WHAT TO BRING: -- We will be having Domino’s Pizza as the main dish. The cost of the Pizza will be split among all those that show. Please bring $5 — preferably in ones. Last time it worked out to $3 each. -- If your last name is in the A-G range bring something to drink; softdrinks, juices, whatever. If your last name is in the H-M range bring something to snack on; chips, pretzels, whatever. If your last name is in the N-Z range bring dessert; ice cream, brownies, ice cream, cookies, ice cream whatever. Yes, we know the N-Z range is a bit bigger than the other two but this worked well two years ago:-) -- For the “winner take all” pool tournament there is a $1 entry fee. Glen A has gone undefeated in the last two pool tournaments so play only if you can afford to pay! -- If you like your photos from the ascent or marathon you can have them at cost which I imagine works out to well under a buck. So bring a couple more in case you got your picture taken by Yvonne. WHERE: The party is at Matt and Yvonne’s house at 36 El Paso Blvd in Manitou Springs. To get there turn off of Manitou Avenue onto Beckers Lane. Beckers Lane is the main entry way into the Garden of the Gods Park from the West — it is the street that the GOG Trading Post is on. For those that the GOG and Trading Post mean nothing take HWY 24 to the main Manitou Springs exit (#141) and head EAST (away from Pikes Peak) on Manitou Avenue. The first stoplight you come to is Beckers Lane. Once on Beckers Lane the first cross-street you will come to is El Paso Blvd. You will know you are there if at this intersection you see two baseball fields on your right. Our house is across from the outfield of the first baseball field. This means you will take a right on El Paso and we are on the corner of El Paso Blvd and Via Linda Vista. It is the far East Townhome — again that is 36 El Paso Blvd. If you need further instructions call us at 685-5654 or click on the www link to a map on the Incline Club page. www.skyrunner.com/incline.htm The preferred parking place will be in the parking spots at the baseball field where you can walk just a couple hundred yards to our house. Parking can also be done along El Paso Blvd next to the baseball fields. People do it all the time during games so I see no cause for concern here. IMPORTANT: If you know someone who ran with us that is e-mail impaired please pass this invitation on to them! WRAP-UP: Incline Club Pikes Peak (and Leadville) wrap-up to come in a separate e-mail but I thought I should get this out today... WIN A T-SHIRT: Attached is another photo in the tradition of those great adidas ads. Be the first to guess who’s leg is shown and win T-shirt at the party! (leg owner not eligible)#### Go out hard, when it hurts speed up... Matt Carpenter http://www.skyrunner.com
