Open Race is for everyone.  Come Join the fun.

High School races  ONLY 9th -12th grade ONLY, If you run an eight grader or younger, your entire team will be disqualified.   We had to disqualify the 2nd place team a couple of years ago due to the Coach not following the instructions.  The team would have still been the 2nd place team if he had just followed the rules.
