What to Expect

  • Portland Location

    Vancouver Location

  • 17-18 (young men and women)

    • We do not train high school athletes. A high school athlete should be with their high school coach and program. With that said - we would love to send XC teams each year to compete in the state, regional and national meets. Athletes must have their coaches permission. There are no practices, just selected members that will have their registration fees covered by the club to go have fun and compete together.

    15-16 (intermediate)

    • See above

    (13-14 youth)

    • Goal is to set up athletes fundamentally with a tremendous base to go on and contribute to their local high school programs socially and athletically.

    • We expect to send xc teams to state, regionals and nationals

    • Track season will end at the youth stumptown meet. We do not believe in a track season that involved tons of racing and extension deep into summer. If your primary focus or concern is youth & junior olympic glory we are not the right club for you. Our interest is in development and setting up athletes for success later in life.

    11-12 (midget)

    • Goal is to introduce the sport at a fundamental level. Kids at this age should not be overly specialized or focused on any specific sport. We want to keep things light, focus on raising confidence through consistency and worth ethic.

    • We expect to send teams to state, regionals, and nationals but like all of our club members from youth to our semi-professional athletes - we are very processed oriented.

  • 15 - 18 age

    • Select teams only; to go compete at state, regional and national meets.

    11 - 14 age

    • Athletes meet 2 - 3 x days per week during season. Athletes will race 3 × 6 times during the season, including USATF JO state, regional and national meets.

  • We don’t believe in year round running for youth athletes. Specialization is the death of athleticism. Kids should be multi-sport athletes up till high school.

    We are starting a youth program due to the predatory nature of year long clubs that produce very little besides burn out.

    We are more than willing to offer gentle guidance during off-seasons to help maintain fitness, but we will not abandon our principles. 

Sample Itinerary

  • Workshop participants ease into the day with creative prompts and a welcome circle to get grounded and set the tone.

  • Our first session focuses on the foundations of floral design. From tool basics to flower care and simple composition tips, you’ll start building confidence and finding your creative rhythm.

  • Participants will be responsible for brining their own lunch, but we'll provide water and some additional snacks throughout the day.

  • With the basics fresh, we’ll dive into hands-on arranging. We’ll explore shape, scale, and movement while encouraging personal style through floral design.

  • To close the day, you’ll create a final piece to share with the group. We’ll reflect on your process and celebrate the creativity that unfolded.
