Check your RAT Facts:

  • Turn in your registration ASAP! Remember to consider your child’s skill level when choosing a race.
  • The fine print of the registration has many important facts — we’ve made changes! Please read carefully.
  • The races will be Chip Timed, which means an electronic chip will be on the race bibs. These chips are not transferable. Please help your child remember safety first! The race results are based on when the runner crosses the start and finish lines (not necessarily their location in the pack of runners).
  • Be sure to bring cash the evening of the race so your children and you may enjoy the activities and attractions, many of which are new for 2017!
  • THIS IS A RAIN OR SHINE EVENT. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS DUE TO A WEATHER-RELATED EVENT CANCELLATION AND THERE IS NO RAIN DATE FOR THIS EVENT.
  • COURSE START, FINISH AND ROUTE MAY BE ALTERED AS NEEDED DUE TO WEATHER-RELATED EVENTS BEYOND THE RACE ORGANIZERS CONTROL.
