STREET CLOSURES
Streets will begin closing at 8:00am and will remain closed until about 11:00pm for clean up.

For those located within the interior of the race route, you will have vehicle access at the intersection of Lake Bluff & Maryland Ave. in between races. This will be the only point that Shorewood Police will allow vehicle traffic to cross the route during intervals in the race. There will be no parking allowed on the racecourse during the event. Please be sure to obey temporary no parking signs to avoid tickets and towing.
KIDS RACES
If you are interested in the kids races, please head over to the BLUE North Shore Bank / Little Sprouts Play Cafe tents located across from Draft & Vessel no later than 5:30pm to sign a waiver and get ready to line up! Decorating will be available.
The age grouping for the kids races will be ages 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 and 9-12 year old’s. All kids MUST be wearing a helmet and sign the waiver prior to racing.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
As always, these races can’t be successful without volunteers like you! Race marshals and corner guards are essential — they keep racers and their fans on their respective sides of the barricades so everyone has a safe and exciting race day. Plus they get a front row view of all the action!
Volunteers get a flag and a reflective vest to use, and an event t-shirt that will be yours to keep as our thanks for your time and service and a free beer for those 21 and over! Grab your friends and sign up for a shift below!
