Packet Pickup, Timing Chip Pickup, Race Start, Event Details


Saturday and Sunday Packet Pickup, Sunday Timing Chip Pickup, and the Race Start will be located at the newly renovated Great Room building above. The renovation was made possible by the Natural Heritage Trust account. This is the same account that this event raises money for. You can be proud of what you are supporting.

The building is located at the trail head on the east side of the beach. It is a short walk from the parking lot. The walk from the parking lot will be marked race morning with glow sticks. A light breakfast will be provided.
