COVID PROTOCOLS FOR RACERS Stay Masked whenever not racing, eating, or drinking Junior-only fields will race masked Vaccination or Negative PCR Test within 3 days of racing Physical distancing on the infield No team tents No sitting in groups/teams Bring a chair/blanket Stay home if you re experiencing any symptoms no season points are on the line.

COVID PROTOCOLS FOR NON-RACERS We are in this together! Our racers are going through the steps of vaccination or negative PCR tests, so we are asking our spectators to spread out and stay masked unless eating or drinking. Stay Masked whenever not eating, or drinking Physical distancing requirements Follow spacing requirements in the bleachers Only sit in household groups in the turns Stay back from the rail Beer Garden & Food Trucks are TBD at this point

VOLUNTEERING NEEDS Meeting all the County/State requirements is going to take more volunteer power to pull off. If you can, please consider volunteering (or convincing friends & family to volunteer)! We are always short on volunteers and this year we need them more than ever! Please consider signing up! Remember 4 hours = 1 free race.
