———- IMPORTANT ———- 5/6/2020 *** ANNOUNCEMENT *** The club officers and events committee members met last night, and made the hard decision to cancel this year's East Coast Xterra Challenge. We apologize if this causes any inconveniences for you. Like many other events, this was going to be a banner year for the longest running Xterra event, which we were all looking forward to. On a positive note, this gives us another year of planning to make this event even greater for 2021! If you have already paid the event fees for this year, we will be refunding you. Please know that we are all just as eager as each of you to get back out onto the trails! We hope you and your families are all safe, and we look forward to seeing you all again soon! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4/2/2020: From our families to yours, we hope you are all keeping safe & in good spirit. We continue to adhere to guidelines from federal & states authorities as we review the events planned for the rest of this year. With the rapidly changing situation with COVID-19, we are currently uncertain of the impact to ECXC-2020 that is currently scheduled for July 16th - 18th. On or around May 15th, we will make a decision of ECXC-2020 going ahead as planned or otherwise. If a decision is made sooner, we will communicate that out. Until such time, we recommend that you do not make any reservations/payments that cannot readily be refunded. ——————————— The Officers and Supporting Members of The North East XTerra Club will be hosting the 20th Annual East Coast Xterra Challenge!

Thanks Jeff, that’s great news however "anticipates" is the key word in the announcement and presents a problem for those who organize this event. It might surprise some of you to learn that the Officers and Event Committee Members at NEXterra start planning for The East Coast Xterra Challenge the week after the previous year’s event ends. Dates need to be determined and locked in. Venues need to be determined, and secured for “Home Base”, wheeling, Friday Night Party, Saturday night BBQ, etc. Food for the Saturday night party needs to be figured out and ordered. Sponsors need to be contacted and donations need to be collected. Staff needs to be solicited and organized. Sign up must be put together and maintained. Event shirts, stickers, Trail Leaders…I could go on and on. Even if Rausch can open and NEXterra decides to go ahead with the event I doubt most of the things we have been lucky enough to enjoy during past would be happening. AOAA has made no such announcement about opening to date. I don’t even know the status of Twin Grove or any of the Hotels in the aera around Rausch. That said, I was told that in mid-May a decision by the NEXterra Officers would be made about moving forward with ECXC 2020 or not. Personally: Right now, Brooklyn and the rest of NYC are a fucking war zone with folks in the hundreds dropping dead every day (over a thousand last Monday). I haven’t kissed or hugged my parents or adult children in over six weeks. I’m lucky if I see them occasionally. My family have all been okay, but I personally know many folks who have/have had it and recovered. I personally know a few that did not recover. This shit is real. They say they might start opening NYC on May 15th and see how it goes. I want to wheel but at this point driving to PA to hang out with a large group of my friends for three days seems somewhat scary, irresponsible and selfish. Just my view today. Stay safe my friends, I hope to see you all on the trail sometime soon. |

Tommy, I fully understand. I know it's a horrible mess out there. I'm sorry. Just being selfish and wanting to get back to normal. I fully support whatever decision is made.. |
