We’re fortunate to have such strong partnerships with these venues, and they’re just as excited as we are to welcome the series back this year. Returning to legendary tracks like Duluth, Eagle River, and Ironwood feels like a homecoming, and continuing Valcourt as a Pro points stop only elevates the excitement. I’m eager to see how this season unfolds, and I know the competition will be fiercer than ever.”
