Eugene Celebration Cycling Classic at Skinners Butte Park Featuring Kids Fun Race

The Eugene Celebration Cycling Classic has grown to be one of the most exciting events of the year. In years past it drew racers from the NW, including Canada and California. What a better way to celebrate this top NW cycling event, and The Eugene Celebration than to include kids for a Fun Kids Race!

The Fun Kids Race, which is free, will take place in the middle of the racing schedule on Sunday September 21st at 11:30am. ( PDF Kids Race Flyer)
Kids and their parents should meet at registration area at parking lot on corner of 3rd and Lincoln at 11:00am. The kids and their parents will then have to proceed up Lawrence to Cheshire, near the north side of the park to the kid’s course. The course for the kids will be run along Cheshire Ave near Skinner Butte Park Loop Rd. The kid’s racecourse will be set up with cones and done on laps according to age level. We will group kids by 0-3, 4-5, 6-8, 9-11 years old.

All kids participating will receive a Kids Race Participant Ribbon, special kid’s prize drawing ticket and goodie bag.

All kids are welcome, any age and ability.
