please let me know. The prices for general admisssion are as follows:
1-Day Ticket: $2 (Canadian)
9-Day Ticket: $10 (Canadian)
No further information was listed on how to purchase
tickets, but I have written to ask for further info. As soon as I get it, I'll post it here. The Trials, as announced
before, will be from September 1-11, and there will be 2 days off in the middle, Sunday, September 4th and Thursday,
September 8th. Results will be listed for the team on fpvq.org on their home page under the word "Résultats". I

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONATHAN!
Thursday, August 18th, 2005
Today is Jonathan Guilmette's 27th birthday!
I will soon be taking a gift to him (when I go to Quebec for the Olympic Trials) from several of you who chipped in to
buy him a small token of your appreciation for all he does day in and day out for us, whether it's skating up a storm, sending
in great vacation photos or writing in his journal for the site. Happy Birthday, Jonathan! And many happy returns!
If you'd like to see the group card sent to him, please click the link below:

I will post a picture of the gift from all of you
after I've given it to him.
