Elk-Kings Race Aid Station - Volunteers Needed

October 2, 2021 7:30am

Come hang with Mountain Shop at the Diamond Mill Aid Station on Saturday October 2nd for both the 25k and 50k Elk Kings Trail Races to serve up some stoke to these tired runners! We will break down the aid station after the course sweeper comes through and return the items to the race finish. This is the 3rd aid station for the 25K and the 2nd and 6th aid station for the 50K. Aid station theme will be winter sports so feel free to don ski boots, holiday sweaters, goggles, ear muffs, and whatever other ridiculously wintery things you can think of! 

We will meet at the Smith Homestead in Tillamook, OR 97141 at 7:35am to pick up aid station supplies (1.5 hrs from Portland) and then drive 10 minutes to the Diamond Mill aid station to be setup for the first runner.
