    AID STATION COMPETITION:
    Every year, members of our community volunteer to come out and set up our “Super Aid Stations.”  Besides the cups of water, these stations offer a variety of munchies, beverages, and entertainment.  There will be between 3 and 5 of these stations on the 10 and 15 mile courses.  Besides helping you along, these volunteers are hoping to earn your vote in a competition of their own.  At the finishline refreshment corral, you will be asked to vote for your favorite aid station.  Please vote with the same enthusiasm that the volunteers showed you on the course, they take their competition very seriously.
