"This is our second year for the event, and the support from the community has been wonderful.  We have a lot of prizes to give out and this year we have started early on promotion.  To date we are far ahead of where we were last year in terms of registrations numbers, and we still have about 7 weeks left till the event," said Lee McCoy, managing director.  
"We have been advertising locally and abroad and the response has been positive, with registrations already in from Abaco, Nassau, Freeport, Florida, South Carolina, Illinois, Virginia and California to name a few.  So far it looks like the women's sprint triathlon will be a hotly contested event, and I'm excited to see the level of competition and comradery that will take place throughout the weekend."
The 2nd annual event, which takes place March 22-24th in Treasure Cay, Abaco, includes a 1-mile open water swim, Sprint and Olympic triathlons (in both individual and relay events), a kids' 1-mile run and a 5k/10k fun run/walk. 
The scenic destination of Treasure Cay, Abaco, encourages both tourists and locals alike to attend.  The courses are flat, the beaches and waters are gorgeous, and the roads are smooth, making for an ideal location for the races.
Everyone who registers online before February 18th, 2013, will be entered into a drawing to win one of three prizes.  The first drawing is for a complimentary night at the Treasure Cay Resort, the second is for a round-trip ticket to Abaco, and the third is a case of Sands Beer.  Registration details can be found on the event website, www.GAFFW.com  The winners will be announced via email and the newsletter, on the website, and on the Facebook page by February 20th.
