Snowshoe for Pittsfield

Pittsfield Vermont was devastated by Hurricane Irene.  Sign up, collect pledges and raise money to help them.  Every year they hold a snowshoe marathon.  Yes, people race for 26.2 miles in snowshoes!  So, with that spirit in mind this race is about 2 miles long.  If there is snow, bring your snowshoes, otherwise just race in your shoes.  The main goal is to raise money and have some fun. 

What:  Register on race day ($20), collect pledges to help the town recover.  All registration and pledge dollars will go straight to Pittsfield Hurricane Relief.

Distance:  About 2 miles.
