On the East Coast. it DOES seem that summer biathlon survives mainly
on the efforts of a handful of very dedicated individuals from PA, NJ,
NY. It's good to see that there is an upcoming race in NH this year.

It would be good if USBA promoted summer biathlon more.

A schedule that was e-mailed to me recently had these races listed
