COURSE:
This year's race will be held on a modified Santiam Pedalfest
beginner course. It consist of 7.5 miles of fire road, singletrack, and
pavement. After a start in Kimmel Park, the race climbs up Shepherd's
Land and more gravel road before coming to a short trail, a gravel
descent, and the Green Mile Trail. The race then falls back into Mill
City towards the finish at Kimmel Park.
PRIZES & 2002 NATIONALS:
Custom medals 15 deep in both male and female categories, plus
trophies to the top 3 teams. All you need to be a team is 3 people, so
start recruiting from track, soccer, and any other sport you can think of
(no qualifying is necessary). The top finishing teams and individuals
will be invited to the 2002 NORBA National High School Championship.
Sponsors have invested a lot of time and money into this event, so if you
want to see it continue in years to come, pleas show up with all the
people you can bring. After all, with the cheap entry fee and short
course you should be able to bring a bus load of people. :)
SPONSORS:
Covanta Energy made this event possible, so they're the first ones
we'd like to thank. In addition, we've got a bunch of other sponsors
we'd like to thank too. They are: Roth's, Sobe, GU, Clif Bar, MTB +,
Jon's Bicycle Station, KHS Bicycles, and Quality Bicycle Products.
DIRECTIONS:
Mill City is located 30 miles east of Salem on Highway 22 (allow
45 minutes from Salem, 2 hours from Bend), Registration will be at
Kimmel Park. Turn at the Circle K, cross the bridge, turn left, and
follow the signs to the park. Extra parking will be available at the
high school.
LODGING:
For those that would like to get out and about a day early, there
are a few options. Racers can spend the night at Kimmel Park in Mill
City on the 8th, but they are only permitted to camp in tents. Only a
mile away from Mill City is the Fisherman's Bend Campground, and it is an
excellent spot to camp if any sites are available. Their phone number is
503-897-2406. For those that would like a little more comfort, the
Stayton Best Western (18 miles W of the race) can be reached at
503-769-9579. After all though, this race is up in the mountains, so
campgrounds are abundant.
