STL Daggers

We're sorry to have to announce this, but due to coronavirus-related concerns, Slalom St. Louis 2020 has been postponed. That means that for the first time in 17 years, there won't be a slalom race in Tower Grove Park on the Memorial Day weekend.

Most of y'all probably already had guessed this was the case, but we figured we'd better make a formal announcement.

If we're able to reschedule the race later in the year, we'll be sure to let people know. Until then, stay safe, be cool and roll on.

On our way to Tower Grove to finish setting up now. See you there!

THANK YOU to everyone who came out to this year's Slalom St. Louis event. FIFTEEN YEARS in the bag! Racers, families, friends, sponsors, hecklers and passers-by: Thank you all!

Thanks to Brian Ruth for his article about this year's Slalom St. Louis race on May 28-29, with a bunch of great photos by Tod Oles.
