Has there been any release to what promotions will be for 2009? Want to make sure I have all equipment to qualify.

Give them another 2-3 weeks and I bet they will most everything set.

Chad,
Is that an official MWC response?

Hardly....just guessing on my part. I assume they will make them all known when the flyers come out. Since early bird registration is early Jan I am making an educated guess that we should see them in a few weeks.

I guess I was hoping to see the promotions before Early Bird sign up. Could make/break sign up decision.

Okay....for an "official" reply:

:-)

We are trying to button these things up with our sponsors. A lot of them have been going through their budget cycle -- and we are waiting on their decisions on what they want to do. We have a "sponsor summit" meeting at our Headquarters at the end of January. Usually they have it all figured out by then -- we review together, tweek, then announce. Sometimes it can happen earlier....don't see that this year.

We'd love to tell you exactly what they all are...unfortunately, we don't know across the board yet.

Hope that helps.

Kristine

Sounds great Kristine. Thanks for the reply.

Should we not know these promotions before we start the early bird registration. Just seems to me that we are registering in the blind with registrations that might pull more teams in??? Just my two cents.
