2011 Josh Billings Runaground
Josh Billings- Sunday September 18
There are 4 places we will need crew members and a couple of parent volunteers, please email
to let us know where you can help also let us know shirt sizes because volunteers get a free Josh shirt.
1. Stockbridge Bowl public boat launch 10am-1pm (5-7 kids and parent): Gordon will meet kids at the Tanglewood main gate around 9am to start walking to the boat launch at 9:15. The first stage of the Josh, which is bicycling, ends at the boat launch. Athletes will then be running for their boats and many will look for help RUNNING their boat to the water. 5-7 bigger stronger kids that can run with a boat would be helpful here. This map shows the transition procedure for athletes after biking (has nothing to do with us). Here is a map that shows the bike route.

2. Camp Mahakeenac Beach 10:45-1pm (8-10 kids and parent): After rowing around the Stockbridge Bowl rowers will land at Camp Mahakeenac Beach for the running portion of the event. Crew members held and took boats from 1 or 2 man teams and passed them down the shore where 2-6 kids would lift them onto the beach for the owners to pick up later. Water shoes and shorts were the better attire. Here is a map that shows the route runners will take to finish the race.

3. Tanglewood beach 10:45-1pm (8-10 kids and parent): Boats get rowed from the Camp Mahakeenac Beach to the Tanglewood beach for removal back to cars parked at Tanglewood. Athletes will need help moving their boats, possibly all the way back to their cars which is about a 5 minute walk. So again some of the bigger stronger kids with sneakers would be appreciated here.

4. Watering sites: This is new for us this year, but we have been requested to help at 5 Interlaken Crossroads, arrival time is 11am, rowers will need to be dropped off and picked up from this location. Any size crew member can help with this.

5. Tanglewood finish line: - Promoting flocking, selling Kayak raffle tickets, and eating pizza ($2 for all you can eat). After each group is finished at their site they can walk back to the parking lot near the front gate area of Tanglewood where the team will meet up for some pizza and selling raffle tickets and flocking. It is probably best to park at Tanglewood and walk to your volunteer area since the roads will be very busy with some road closures between 10-2 and there won't be much parking at any of the volunteer sites. However, kids working the watering site will need a ride. Kids should bring water/snack and proper clothing for the weather.
