Sign in will begin at 11:30 am at Morris Thompson Center. Extra snowshoes will be available for public use.
Race will begin at Noon in Griffin Park, behind the Morris Thompson Center. A 1 mile trail will be laid, and snowshoers from all over Faribanks will race for some fabulous downtown prizes, graciously donated by downtown businesses.
