GWI will be held in 2021!
Check this website for the latest updates.
GWI has, MOST UNFORTUNATELY, been cancelled.
In spite of Meet Director Bob Wright’s valiant efforts to keep the 61st Annual Golden West Invitational on the 2020 schedule, several insurmountable obstacles surfaced that made proceeding impossible and caused the final decision to cancel. All of us at GWI appreciate your ongoing support and we will look forward to 2021, when a kinder, healthier environment will allow us to resume the tradition. If you have any questions, contact Bob Wright directly:

GWI is still on – Pending USATF COVID-19 Updates
The 61st Annual Golden West Invitational date is June 27, 2020, pending USATF COVID-19 Regulation Updates.
We are all hoping that by June 27 our region, state, country and world
will be safe enough to resume athletic competitions.
THANK YOU!
