Special Programs

We’ve said it before and will keep on saying it -Raise the Bar is about PEOPLE. Triathlon is a fine tool for us to draw people together, but rest assured, RTB will always be about people.  And the more we hang around with the finest athletes,families, business owners, sponsors, and coaches, the more we realize that one generic program doesn’t really suit every person.  We need to create different opportunities to reach everyone.

 

This is why we have a passion (OBSESSION?) for developing unique programs and groups that will make the multisport experience richer.   We like to think outside the box on this one - fully engage the “What if we did this....” circuitry in the brains of our coaches and staff.

 

Below you’ll find some or our 2008 programs - all are repeating from 2007. We’ve got a few new ones that we’ll tell you about later too...We’re always looking for ways to IMPROVE and always looking for business partners that would like to come along for the ride.  If you have a business that could benefit from a partnership with us, please contact Patty Swedberg.

 

Our thanks to our current program SPONSORS who make these programs fly!!!  Find out who they are as you click your way around this site.

RTH is unique in that it is a sponsor driven program and the cost per person is set far below the expenses. The difference is covered by our team sponsors who believe in your ability to succeed. The 2009 program will kick off early next year, but you will be able to register for it and learn more details this month.
