Course Marshall Mountain Bike Race at Lake Perris
Saturday, February 22 2025
Get a front-row seat to watch the Damien/St. Lucy's/Pomona Catholic Mountain Bike Racing team compete at their first race this season! The race is held at Lake Perris, which is about an hour from Damien. Over 1000 students will be racing over the weekend from 80 schools.
Saturday is middle school racers, and Sunday is high school. Our team is providing the course marshalls for this race. Bring a folding chair, some snacks and plenty to drink. You'll be sitting somewhere on the course and wired up with an awesome neon yellow vest and given a cool walkie-talkie while watching racers zoom by. If there are any people with mechanical issues, cutting the course, etc, you'll call it in on your fancy space-age radio.
It's EXTREMELY important that you're on time for the event as there's a mandatory course marshall meeting at the beginning and then you'll walk (or bike if you have one) to your position on the course. Please arrive a bit early as it can take 20 minutes to get through the gate and find a parking spot. If you're late, we'll unfortunately need to give the spot to someone else, as the races cannot start without course marshalls already in place.
If you like to mountain bike and you're interested in a volunteer spot where you ride the course instead of relaxing in a chair, send an email to Dominic@Damien-HS.edu and we can set you up as a roving marshall.
