Brian's meet is great. I'm glad we had a chance to add it to the circuit. The circuit page will be updated soon, keep checking for updates in the next week. LB

If your not part of the circuit, can you still vault in it? I had to miss it last year due to moving in to college, but would love to go this year! Just wondering...

Yea, the meet is especially for everyone else. The circuit is just to try to bring in a few elite athletes to give everyone else in the meet something to watch and shoot for. The circuit is all about getting everyone involved in the sport. Indiana State fair is exactly what that is. Bryan and those guys have the honor of having the longest running streetvault in America, they have brought recognition of our sport longer than anyone I know. LON

Directions to the state fair grounds in Indianapolis:

the closest to the site of the competition.

38th street become the same road the entrance to the fairgrounds will be on your right.
