Wednesday night was the Mudskippers' Meet and Greet for riders and parents. Held at Old Chicago in Louisville, the goal was to get the riders to get to know each other better and bond, while the parents got to do the same with each other. The kids were thrilled to discover their new uniforms and helmets were waiting for their arrival and a veritable frenzy broke out as each rider tried on different helmets to find their favorite. Many of the kids immediatley threw their jerseys on and wore them all night!
The parents were more restrained, though there was lots of talking and mingling going on. Coach Erik Hultgren and Queen Mudskipper Beth Wren-Estes were on hand to keep things in order and enjoy meeting all the parents. As the evening wrapped up, everyone was very excited to get to CX camp in Winter Park - only 2 days away!!
