Note from the Race Officials:
All racers and coaches (and parents) must wear masks at all times while at Kincaid. Racers can remove masks when they are on the start line, they will have plenty of time. Perhaps the most important thing to remember is PHYSICAL DISTANCING!!
There will be places to remove your warm ups in the stadium. No clothing can be hung on fences near the start or finish areas. Even better, keep it at your team area. Enter the start area a couple of minutes before your start and follow the instructions of the start crew. When you finish the race ski all the way through the finish area get your warm ups, ski a cool down and go home.
Skiers are responsible for knowing what is expected while at these races. A lot of people have worked hard so we can race and it is important to remember that the next race depends on the behavior at this race.
Facilities
Teams will have not have access to any indoor facilities.

Volunteer
Give your kid a break and have more fun and stay warmer on race day. Join the Green Grunts and spend your day supporting the racers. The “Grunts” meet for breakfast and work together to make the race a great experience for all racers (first to last), families, and coaches. There is a lot of work to do on the snow and in the woods. We even have inside jobs before race day. And the skier in your family may be glad you have something better to do than hover over them as they try to focus for their race.
