Good morning Maumee Bay racers:
This is your final communication from HFP Racing before we leave later today for Maumee Bay State Park. Please bring any last minute questions or changes to the park with you as our customer service staff will be on location.
IMPORTANT START TIME CHANGES FROM DEER CREEK
In order to keep folks from loitering in the transition area too long and causing problems with the earlier events we changed our start times and ALL participants MUST be out of transition by 7:30am. With nearly 700 participants anticipated for Sunday’s race PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY. Once the first race starts at 7:30am NO ONE will be permitted into the transition area to set up for their race. Please plan accordingly.
Here are the new start and weekend schedule times:
