THIS WEEK IN TRI CLUB (December 26-January 1) and GFC WEEK 12 ROLL CALL! Last Week: Between the dedications for Brian's tree, sign, and plaque, Keith's continued positive steps in his recovery, the birth of Gator Tot Samantha, and the recognition of Jon Crosby as the 2022 recipient of the newly named "Brian Kozera Gator Done Award", it was a great week! And hopefully you had the chance to end it with some quality family time over the weekend! This week is a bit abbreviated with some uncoached workouts, but we are offering a fairly complete schedule that also includes the Tuesday night youth Gators "End of Year Hot Chocolate Ride and Run"!
