Welcome to Bogue Chitto State Park Trail Run!

5. NO DOGS, NO PACERS, NO BABY STROLLERS, NO BICYCLES,

6. This event is "Bring Your Own Bottle". In our efforts to keep our

races and the park green, we will not have cups at the water

stations. This reduces the amount of trash and therefore, our

impact on the park. Water will be provided for filling up your

bottles, camelbacks, and other containers at the water stations

on the course. Drink lots of water to stay hydrated.

7. There is an entrance fee of $1.00 per person to be admitted to

the Park. This fee does not apply to seniors (age 62 and older)

or for children under 3 years old. (This fee was not included in

your registration fees, as this money goes directly to the park.)

8. Come prepared for the HOT weather. Bring sunscreen and make

sure to stay hydrated. INSECT repellent is a MUST!

9. HAVE FUN! Plan to stay for the post-race activities and awards

ceremony. We want everyone to have a great day, in this

amazing place. There is also kayaking, tubing, canoeing and

horseback riding available at the park for after the race.

About our Social Cause – STARC

Since 1972, STARC’s goal has been to improve the lives of the mentally

disabled through services, job training, advocacy, better resources, and

new connections. STARC is all about helping people with developmental

disabilities reach their potential and become independent, contributing

members of the community. They do so by providing therapeutic

treatment, daycare, job training and community homes. STARC has been

enriching the lives of the mentally disabled for almost 40 years and we are

very happy to be partnering with them in this event.
