PACKAGE PICK UP
*** Note: this race starts later than our other races***
As we tend to get a large number of participants registered and to ease the congestion with parking, we stagger the bib pick up times. Package pick up will take place inside the Lighthouse Community Hall. The race start and finish line are up on the field behind the hall.
- Long Course participants can pick up their bibs starting at 10:00am until 11:00am.
- Short Course participants can pick up their bibs starting at 10:45am until 11:30am.
