GOLDEN WEST INVITATIONAL

The Golden West Invitational has new management and has relocated to Edwards Stadium at UC Berkeley. It will be a two day meet with trials on Saturday and finals on Sunday. The top three finishers in the California State Championships will be given automatic entry with a $250 travel stipend and the top two out of state finishers for each event in their respective states will also be given automatic entry with a $500 travel stipend.

Great venue, top national level competition, excellent dining, lodging and tourism opportunities (20 minutes from downtown SF) and the opportunity to have all of this paid for. What could be better than that?

Another correction.......please bear with me, I will get this right eventually.

The two top national leaders in each event will get a $500 travel stipend and automatic entry into the Sunday finals. The top three finishers from each state can petition for a performance based travel stipend of $500 / $300 / $200 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. goldenwestinvitational.org explains it very clearly or at least much better than I can. OK I'm going to sign off before I cause any more confusion.
