TRi KiDS Burnaby – Cancelled

March 23, 2020/in Frontpage Article, Uncategorized, Updates

Dear TRi KiDS Burnaby Athletes and Families,

We are very sad and disappointed to announce the cancellation of TRi KiDS Burnaby scheduled for May 31, 2020. Under the circumstances and in consultation with the City of Burnaby we have made this difficult decision.

We will be refunding your registration fee in full, including tax. The refund will not include the processing fee that was charged by our third party registration provider. Refunds may take some time to process and we appreciate your patience.

Unfortunately we cannot offer a deferral to TRi KiDS Burnaby 2021. As you may know C.G. Brown Pool will be closing for renovation this fall and it is expected to take two years to complete. At this time we do not have an alternate site.

Thank you for your loyalty and enthusiasm for the TRi KiDS Triathlon Series. Be safe and well.

Tara and Brad Melville and the TRi KiDS Race Crew

I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for putting on such a wonderful event! We cannot say enough about our experience yesterday – it was so well organized! The highlight was to be able to cheer on and encourage not only our daughter, but all of the children who participated. It was very rewarding to see so many children out being active and to see the enthusiasm, pride, and the satisfaction of such an accomplishment on their faces (and those of parents). I will never forget the image of watching my daughter come across the finish line and the pride I felt! Thank you for bringing this event to BC!

This was our family’s first time participating in a triathlon but we’ve participated in many events of different varieties and I must tell you, this was such a marvelously run event I am simply in awe. Such attention to so many details to make everything run smoothly, and such terrific staff/volunteers to ensure every kid had a positive experience. Planning and organization, enthusiasm and good humour, all played a role in making the whole event enjoyable for participants and spectators alike.
