We’re only a few weeks away from the 2005 IRI, and it is time for another update.
Registration fees ($350) and Friday night meal fees ($1 per attendee) are due Friday, July 1st. That is in 2 DAYS!! Many teams have sent their payment in, and we greatly appreciate it. For those of you who have sent a check and it is “in process”, we appreciate that also. Since the demand to compete at this year’s IRI was so high, we will need to stick by our payment stipulations.
