IMAZ Party (And more events!)

It's that time again!

The 5th Annual Ironman Arizona Party at Tribe Multisport is happening again this year and we couldn't be more excited! Each year has been a blast so we're doing all we can to make this event even better than before... and raise big money for The Nunez Scholarship Foundation & Best Buddies Arizona.

The event is planned for Friday, November 14th from 3-5pm here at Tribe Multisport Scottsdale. This time frame should give participants ample time to make it to registration, the pro press conference, etc. and then allow you to get back to transition for the athlete dinner (Tribe is about 6-7 miles from IM village). We're planning on having free food, drinks, and some pretty kick raffle prizes.

As part of the gathering, we've will once again have a pretty deep list of pro's so you can “See what the pro’s are riding”. About a dozen or so pro triathletes (participating at IMAZ) will be at Tribe with their bikes as they'll be racing them on Sunday. You’ll have an opportunity to check out the bikes, talk to the pro’s, take pictures, and get plenty of autographs. We're very flattered and lucky that these pro's have taken time out of their day to join us for the event.

As for the raffle, we're very lucky to have some great partners that are donating some great prizes again this year. Everyone in attendance will receive 1 raffle ticket with the option of buying extras. ALL MONEY RAISED via raffle tickets will be donated to The Nunez Scholarship Foundation & Best Buddies Arizona.

Stay tuned for our list of all of the raffle prizes and an updated list of pro athletes attending!

Please RSVP so that we have an idea of how many people to expect, how many ST Gathering T-shirts to make, and also how many kegs we need! Feel free to bring guests; our store is 9,000 sq ft so we should be able to accommodate everyone. Email [email protected] if you have any questions.

And yes, the event is free to attend!
