COURSE MAP
The Race Starts and Finishes at the Winery! This is a challenging 2 lap course that starts out through the southern vineyards, then takes a cross country path to the east, a dirt road north, then back to the northern vineyard and through some awesome scenic trails. There will be some uneven areas and some short/steep inclines.
CHARITY PARTNER
We are excited to announce that the local charity partner for this event will be The Almelund Fire Department!!
The Almelund Fire & Rescue Department serves 90 square miles and all or part of four townships (Amador, part of Sunrise, Chisago Lakes and Shafer). They are a self-supporting service organization and a great benefit to our local area.
The department has trained firemen and first responders, all of whom are volunteers.
They serve a population of 3,000 residents with medical and fire protection. Also within the service area is Wild Mountain and Wild River State Park, both which are located in Amador Township.
Wild River State Park includes 15 miles of the St. Croix National Scenic River which draws over 180,000 campers, hikers and boaters to this area each year.
Wild Mountain Ski & Water Slide Recreational Area attracts over 220,000 visitors year around.
Continued development in our area for housing along with scenic and recreational attractions require that our department be current and up-to-date with equipment and training.
