A message from Coach Patrick
Biathletes,I wanted to take this opportunity to let folks know that I have been offered a coaching position in Lake Placid, NY that I have accepted. This new job will start at the end of April and will be full time. I am very proud of what our community of athletes has achieved in the past 2 years, especially looking back at this racing season that has just ended. I said that I wanted to flood the trails with green uniforms and we not only did that, but put some athletes on podiums as well with some fantastic results all year long. Jericho and the Northeast are turning heads in the biathlon world and I am excited to see this continue. The best part about my new job is that it will bring me to Jericho on a regular basis. I am extremely grateful for all of the opportunities I have had, lessons learned and amazing people I have met in the course of the past few years. I hope that all of you will stay in touch not only with me but with each other and this great community that is building around our sport of biathlon. Again, thanks to all of you for making my job so much fun and I am very excited to see this club continue to grow and have success for a long time to come. Take care.
Patrick
