Use the garbage cans and make sure not to leave any trash around your campsite. Please try to limit noise from your site at these hours. This helps us maintain our good standing with the Notchview Caretakers.
RACE RESULTS: **Important** We will not have chip timing. I repeat. We will not have chip timing. We are resurrecting the OG Timing Boards from 2019 and 2021. Let’s have a good time! You are in charge of tallying your laps. If you forget, you owe a penalty lap. When you are done, record your finishing time and write the word DONE next to your time. That’s it.
SWAG: This is a fatass invite. If you want the race director’s autograph, he might make an exception. The real swag is getting to camp out and hang with your friends all weekend!
