    Dear Biathlon Family,

 Individual Registration is available on Skireg.com. If you prefer you may complete the attached Individual or
ITeam Registration forms. These forms with payment are due 12:00 pm (noon) on January 30, 2020.

    We wish all teams the best of luck during the competition, and I can assure you that our volunteers will do our
    best to ensure the competitions are fair and will make every effort to give you the best skiing and shooting
    conditions possible with what Mother Nature offers us.

    The FKOC has been host to two IBU world cup events and numerous US National Championships over our 20
    year history in biathlon. We have 30 Mechanical targets that will be used for this competition, and the ski
    courses are all approved with an A class license from the IBU.
    We look forward to having you as our guest for the weekend!
