DESCRIPTION

A 3-hour snowshoe race for teams of two with navigation by map and compass.

VOLUNTEERS

DontGetLost Adventure Running is a not-for-profit organization and the success of

our races relies on the wonderful support we get from our volunteers. We require

15-20 volunteers for each race. There are many benefits to being a DontGetLost

Adventure Running Series volunteer including: having fun, get free race swag,

enjoy the outdoors, learn about the sport (a great way to start), build management

experience, free post-race food, and it counts towards highschool student volunteer

curriculum.
