To all Commando Challenge participants: Please read the WARNO carefully; this is an OVERNITE training event so that means bring your sniffle gear (fart sack, pup tent, bed roll, extra change of clothes and rain gear, and personal hygeine stuff). We will be sleeping on the field. Train up information will be posted very soon so pay attention and get ready for the best training you have ever received in this awesome sport of ours.
I want to also stress that proper hydration and phyiscal preparation are going to be huge to your success come training day. NOTE: At least one liter of water must be on your person (on your kit) during training day. If you don't already own one, I suggest you get yourself a camelbak as soon as possible.
Waivers will be required (get used to them, they are the way of the future), and will be posted soon, also.

More intel to follow shortly.
