IMPORTANT NOTES FOR THOSE LEADING DIY RUNS
- If you are leading a DIY run among your friends, other than the pre-determined scheduled runs, you are welcome to use these staging areas if you'd like. Please plan to leave the staging area at least a half hour prior to the scheduled run departure times, to reduce confusion among run attendees.
- Please DO NOT use the Majestic Moose Lodge as your run staging/gathering area. Choose a spot somewhere outside the resort for your staging.
