Remember that Stark's doesn't have any indoor facilities, so dress and supply yourself accordingly.

What to Bring:
  • SKATE skis, boots and poles

  • Warm hat/mittens/etc.
  • Food for before and after your race
  • Water bottle
Transportation:
We will have 2 vans going to Fryeburg, departure time 8:30 sharp.  
If you need a ride on the van to Fryeburg on Saturday, be sure to tell Susan by 3:00pm on Thursday.
If you are providing your own transportation to Fryeburg, arrival times are:
Girls - 10:00
Boys - 10:50

IMPORTANT INFO FOR BOTH RACES:

LF RULE: NO waxes (glide or kick) will be allowed in any WMC race, including championships, above the LF (Low Fluorinated) level.

Awards: Top 10 individuals from both races will be recognized. Team champions will be based from the pursuit results.

All-Conference: Top 10 combined lowest totals from both WMCC races will determine WMC All-Conference.

No dogs on any race courses.

*We are still looking for a parent helper for both Friday and Saturday (it can be a different person each day), someone to help at the start (especially Saturday, since the pursuit start could be somewhat complicated), collect bibs at the finish, help the timers, or all of the above. If you plan on being at either of these races and are willing to help, please let Susan know asap, as she needs to let the race organizers know who to expect. Any helpers should commit to being at the start/finish area by 1:40 on Friday or 10:40 on Saturday, at which time you will check in with the race organizers and find out where you are needed. Do know that doing this will most likely mean that you will not be able to go out on the course and watch the race in the usual way, but will have an up close view to the start/finish/timing area.
