<p> Iowa/USA Wrestling National Team</p><p>Dear Wrestlers and Parents,</p><p>Congratulations! You have earned the right to represent Iowa at the 2012 Junior Freestyle National Championships to be held in Fargo, North Dakota. The freestyle tournament will begin on Thursday, July 19th and conclude on Saturday, July 21st.</p><p>The Freestyle camp will be held at Camp Dodge in Johnston beginning Wednesday, July 11th. Wrestlers are to meet at Camp Dodge 1:00 pm. Wrestlers must bring bed linen and towels to camp, as none will be provided to you. Wrestlers must also plan on workout gear for at least 9 workouts or bring money to do laundry. It is very important that wrestlers come to camp in shape and ready to work hard. We will not have time to get in condition in the short time we are together. Camp will conclude on Saturday July 14 th at noon.</p><p>Departure for Fargo will be on a chartered bus leaving Tuesday, July 17th. Locations and times of departures will be made available at Camp! In the past the points and times have been: Waterloo APAC by Crossroads Mall: 7:00AM, The Flying J truck stop @ the Boondocks 9:00AM, McDonalds in Clear Lake 10:00AM. These times and locations are subject to change.</p><p>The cost to each wrestler is $700 for one style or $850 for wrestlers competing in both styles. This will include the camp, room and board, and transportation to Fargo, entry fee, and uniform package. Wrestlers must wear an Iowa singlet while competing in the tournament.</p><p>Raffle tickets will again be used this year to help defray the cost of the trip. A $300 deposit is needed to assure your spot on the team. The entry form, the remaining cost for the tournament ($400 or $550) and raffle tickets must be returned to me by July 1st!!!!. If I do not receive this prior to July 1st, you may lose your spot on the team. Checks made payable to: Iowa/USA Wrestling.</p><p>Wrestlers and coaches will be staying at the Double Wood Inn in Fargo. Any wrestler that does not follow the rules set forth by the Coach or Team Leader will be sent home at his expense.</p><p>There will be a bus returning from Fargo on Wednesday July 18th after the Greco-Roman competition. Wrestlers competing in Freestyle will need to arrange their own ride home. Wrestlers will need to contact me if they are planning to leave prior to the end of the tournament. </p><p>You may contact Junior Director Jason Christenson @ 515-967-1414 with any questions.</p><p>Junior Director 206 14th St SW Altoona, IA 50009 [email protected]</p>
