DIRECTIONS FOR RACE DAY:

Sunday, June 14, 2009
Glenmore Park Rowing and Canoe Club,
North Glenmore Park, Calgary

Follow Crowchild Trail South, past Glenmore Trail, into Glenmore Park.  Due to parking conditions in Glenmore Park, please plan to come early! Watch for the ALS shuttle buses within Glenmore Park and the Lakeview Shopping Centre for a ride to the race start area.


TRANSPORTATION:

CAR:
If you are driving, please park in the Lakeview Shopping Centre and catch the convenient Bettys Run for ALS Shuttle to North Glenmore Park.

BUS/C-TRAIN:
There is only one way to get to North Glenmore Park via public transit on Sunday, June 14th:

  1. Take C-Train to Chinook Station (Note: C-Train runs every 15 minutes on Sunday)
  2. Transfer to Route 47 bus (Lakeview/Chinook Station) (Note:#47 runs every 1/2 hour and the first #47 bus leaves Chinook LRT Station at 8:48 am, arriving at Lakeview S.C. at 8:58 am) and then catch the Betty's Run bus down to the site. This is pretty close timing if someone still has to register (registration starts at 9:00 am).


PLEDGES, TEAM PRIZES AND AWARDS:

  • Collect the pledge money from your sponsors.
  • Deposit all pledge money before race day at any Royal Bank in Alberta.
  • Bring your pledge sheet with you when you pick up your race package to be eligible for awards and prizes.

Please ensure that the Royal Bank teller stamps your pledge sheet. Attach your Royal Bank deposit receipt(s) to your pledge sheet and bring your pledge sheet to the Running Room when you pick up your race package. Pledges can be accepted on race day at the Canoe Club from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.

A Commemorative Plaque will be awarded to the group/team with the highest collective total of pledges. These pledges must be submitted collectively no later than 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, June 14th at the Canoe Club. Any pledges received outside of that group submission, cannot be included for this award.
