40th Annual Frank Dunn Toyota Triathlon
August 15th, 2021
Some info to help answer your questions.
We are hosting this race during a pandemic, please if you feel uncomfortable about being around others, wear a mask and social distance. I realize that some people are unvaccinated, so for yourself and others lets be responsible, and not have an uptick in Covid cases. As well if you are feeling sick or have a fever please do not attempt to participate!! THANK YOU!
PACKAGE PICKUP
There is only package pickup at the Community Hall, it will start at 11:00 on the 14th, and go till 5:00 . WE hope that we can get most of the PACKAGES picked up on Saturday. There will be pickup on Sunday morning but we advice pickup the day before so you have time to read the info in the package, if you can”t make it Saturday, pickup will start at 6:45cSunday.
All participants need to have a Triathlon Association membership, Sask. or other Provincial body. If you haven’t purchased please get the one day membership at Package pickup.
CARBO SUPPER
There will be a Carbo supper on Saturday night, from 6:00 to 8:00 at the Community Hall. If you haven’t ordered tickets they will be available at Package pickup. They are $20.00 for adults and for kids under 12 we charge 10.00. This is a pasta meal, with homemade sauces, and salads, all you can eat. We have room for 150 people, first come, first serve. This is a awesome meal, please if you haven”t attended it is worth every penny.
THERE IS NO KIDS SWIM/RUN RACE THIS YEAR, DUE TO COVID, WE HOPE TO BRING THIS BACK NEXT YEAR, SORRY!
We will have a simple Kids run in place of the swim/run, it will happen at Noon, and will be for all ages, with no charge!! So bring the kids down for some exercise!!
RACE MORNING
There is NO PARKING at the COMMUNITY HALL parking lot. Please park at Main Beach Parking Lot and walk to Transition Area.
Body Marking and Late Package pickup will be in the Community Hall starting at 6:45 on Sunday morning. Your timing chip is in your package, please do not lose it, or forget it!!
This year we have to return the chips and the band, please give to the volunteer at the Finish Area.
PANCAKE BREAKFAST
There will be NO PANCAKE BREAKFAST this year, as the Park hasn’t had any of these events.
Hopefully next year this will also be back on.
VOLUNTEERS
All interested volunteers please report to the Community Hall Saturday 12-5 or Sunday morning 7am for assignment, see Roy Fremont. We always need more volunteers! Free shirt, free lunch and an amazing grand prize for one lucky volunteer.
BIKE ROUTE
Sorry to say the Bike Route will be the same for 2021,(as in the past). The Park has filled the worst of the Cracks, there is one area of concern, it is close to Kapasiwin turn-in. Please if you get a chance check it out and in the race proceed with extreme caution, IT IS VERY ROUGH! I have had conversation with the National Park and we are hoping that they will address the really bad areas this Fall and next Spring! Hopefully 2022 we will have a better road.
THE RACE STARTS AT 8:00 ON SUNDAY MORNING. WE WILL NOT WAIT FOR YOU!!
