DeWitt Crossroads Youth Triathlon

2020 DeWitt Crossroads Youth Triathlon registrant:
Sadly, in the effort of being safe, we have made the difficult decision to not hold the DCT due to COVID-19.  We do this to keep everyone safe including all our athletes, volunteers, emergency personnel and spectators.  This was not an easy decision to make.  We will defer your registration to our event in 2021.  Thank you for understanding.  This is a difficult year for everyone.  Keep training and stay safe.
We will see you for the DeWitt Crossroads Youth Triathlon on August 6, 2021.
