Email our club the event organizer at events@mushlarose.ca to let us know what volunteer role you can help out with\, There will be a schedule e-mailed out Friday evening before the race. We’d love to see everyone volunteer for at least one event to spread the work around and keep the day fun for everyone. See below for more details. \nRegistration \nRegistration for the race is available at the following link: https://mushlarose.ca/event-registration/. Registration deadline is October 28th. The schedule will depend on how many teams register for each class\, and will be emailed to the participants on the Friday evening before the race. Events will be held in the above order starting at 9 am. Should you have any questions or difficulties with the registration process please contact events@mushlarose.ca for assistance. \n\n\nThis race is free for Mush Larose 25/26 season members. Renewal/registration at mushlarose.ca/membership: general membership minimum $60\, suggested $100 for those who use the trails regularly (includes trail use for 1 adult using sled/skis – may be shared where the household only has one person running at a time); family membership $100 (includes 2 adults and children 16 and under); associate membership $40 (applicant doesn’t actually use the trails themselves\, but comes to events and their dog participates); weekend membership $15. General membership includes participation in other club events and use of the groomed sledding/skijor trails throughout the season. Membership may be paid by etransfer\, Paypal\, or in person at the race. E-transfers for weekend memberships will only be accepted once your class has been confirmed. \nProof of vaccinations: Required for all dogs\, a minimum of 3 days prior to the event. All dogs must have up to date vaccinations for Rabies and Parvo/Distemper\, or have a vet certified exception\, to run on Mush Larose trails and/or events. Send updated proof of vaccination to sledding@mushlarose.ca. \nRace details: Any changes or cancellation notice will be posted online at www.mushlarose.ca. \nRace meeting notes will be emailed out in advance – this is a MUST read. There will be a bizarre fact in the notes that you must know to prove you have read them. Anyone who doesn’t know the fact will not be allowed to race. This allows racers more flexibility in arrival time. Please try to arrive with enough time to be ready for your scheduled start time. It’s a rec race\, so we will do our best to accommodate people who are late to the gate\, but we will not significantly hold up the schedule for the day. \nPlease organize your own handlers in advance. There may not be enough fetching volunteers to allow them to help your team to the start. \nDogs are required to be in harness for scooter and carting classes; canicross participants must have their dog(s) securely attached to them with a belt\, dogs may wear a harness or run with a non-choke collar (canicross only). Racers under age 18 must wear a helmet and eye protection (recommended for all racers). Racers in the 4-dog cart class must be a minimum of 16 years of age\, or proven to handle 4 dogs in advance – subject to race marshal approval. Cart drivers must have a tie out line with them\, so they can stop and anchor the dogs to a tree should they need to (in case of injury or serious tangle). Any participant may be disqualified if their equipment or their treatment of the dogs is deemed unsafe or unacceptable by the race marshal. No loose dogs on site. Please clean up after your dogs. \nPrizes: There will be fun prizes for the 1st place teams\, and badges for 2nd and 3rd while supplies last. \nThere is no water on site. Please bring your own. \nThis race is dedicated to recreational mushers and dog-powered sports enthusiasts and is open to all breeds. It also serves as an opportunity for experienced dog mushers to enjoy the trail and share their knowledge. Most importantly it is a chance to “get working dogs off unemployment” and have a great time socializing with other dog lovers. \nFor more information please contact:\nDana Cranstone\, Race Organizer\nevents@mushlarose.ca \nRaces depend on volunteers! \nEmail events@mushlarose.ca to let us know what activity you would prefer\, and which races you are in\, so we can schedule around it. \nVolunteer positions are: \nTimer (2-3 per event) – records arrival/departure times – there is a head timer to help you\nParking organizer (1 per event) – ensures that the arriving teams park a reasonable distance apart on one side of the lot\, alternating side from class to class to keep people separated as much as possible)\nTrail help (3 for the 5 km events only) – assists teams to pass if required. Requests traffic wait while teams are on the stretch of trail that is shared.\nTeam Fetcher (1-2 per event) – ensures that each team is reminded in advance of their imminent start time and helps to get to the start line if requested.\nSet-up or Take Down (1-2 people) Helps the organizer set up on Saturday morning\, or to take down trail markers\, and pack things up after the last class on Sunday. \n\n\n\n—  \n\nDana Cranstone
