If you choose yes to volunteer during registration, be sure to sign up on our volunteer page right after registering your child.

Race With A Friend for School Fitness Funding

  • Tell us your school when registering!  When 10 or more kids from your school sign up for the triathlon race, your school will receive $100 in School Fitness Funding for PE, playground, STEM, and adaptive movement equipment.  Your school will receive $10 for each additional triathlon participant after 10 signups.  So, 25 triathlon signups would mean $250 for your school.  
  • Spread the word with the school flyer found HERE.  Check us out on Facebook or Instagram!

Group Volunteer Donation

Once a group has a total of 5 or more volunteers to help, we will donate $10 for each volunteer.  For example, if a group sends 15 volunteers to assist our race, they would receive $150 for their group.  Plus, everyone in the group will receive a race shirt.  This is a great opportunity to support the community, earn required service hours, fundraise for your group or non profit, and build teamwork and camaraderie.  Groups, please contact us using the RACE CONTACT INFO form below to let us know your group is coming and we can add it to registration so we know who's part of your group.  Send your group to sign up HERE.

Individuals will have the option of identifying as a Parent Volunteer or Group Volunteer Donation, but not both. 

We hope you'll find our event fun and rewarding as we foster healthy and active youth in the community.  Thank you in advance for all your support!
