Date: January 9, 2010 (Saturday) Time: 3:30pm Venue: School Hall, Diocesan Boys' School Our Sonic own TriA Vice President Philip Penaloza's two years of service in HKTriA expired but he is very keen to continue his duty and he would like to re-elect as Vice President of TriA and he is calling everyone from Sonic for a vote! Here comes his message; "My platform of program for the term: 1. Complete the new Triathlon HK logo redesign project (Will be launched mid 2010!). 2. Promote the new logo in co-branding partnerships with commercial sponsors 3. Train TRI HK Secretariat to be marketing focused 4. Win more commercial sponsorships for Triathlon HK ITU and all events. 5. Change the shortened form of the Association's name to "Triathlon HK" or "TRI HK" in all correspondence, instead of HKTriA. The official & legal name still remains "The Hong Kong Triathlon Association LImited". I will be in Kaoshiung Taiwan on business from Jan 8-10, so I would appreciate everyone's show of support at the AGM on Jan 9, 2010. Mnay thanks and regards, Philip" Another one of our member Andrew Loong is also very keen to run for election as Hon Secretary so as to contribute and providing legal advise on his professional prospective to HKTriA.

Hope everyone understand. However, if you're really prefer the old paper and pen way, Kenneth will still help you to do the race enrollment for the time being. Duathlon 1 will be 5k run, 30k bike, 5k run at Science Park, check out triathlon.com.hk for detail please.
