FAIRMONT– Due to an extreme heat warning forecasted for this afternoon, and out of an abundance of caution for the health and safety of the participants, spectators, and volunteers, the decision to cancel today’s Fairmont Youth Triathlon has been made.

However, hard work is still being celebrated with a pool part from 4 to 6 p.m. at the

Fairmont Aquatic Park. There race bags and t-shirts will be available for pickup and will be mailed to participants who cannot make it.

O’Scoops Food Truck will still be on site with sweet treats and snacks and Marty C. Pig will be there as well.

The Fairmont Youth Triathlon Team thanks everyone for their understanding and is looking forward to seeing many at the pool.
