GARBAGE AND RECYCLING

Teams shall follow the principles of "Leave No Trace:"

Please pack out what you pack in and bring trash bags, etc. We

will have some small trash receptacles onsite for spectator garbage and water bottle recycling. We want to leave this event space BETTER than we found it!

Please encourage your athletes and spectators to help us clean up trash.

VOLUNTEERS AND TEAM SUPPORT NEEDED

Volunteers are needed to make this a safe, enjoyable event. Volunteers receive a small gift as a token of appreciation. Volunteer signups will open in early August; check back here!

At the conclusion of the event, we ask the remaining teams and spectators to please lend a helping hand! Many hands make light work, and we are short on daylight. Teams can help us break down by carrying equipment to our truck: fencing, bins, cones, tables, etc. Find an event staffer in a red shirt and ask how you can help!
