BIBS
You will receive a bib number to stick to the front and back of your regular season bib for TEAM RACING You must have a bib number on to participate. You may only have one bib number on at a time and they need to be placed upside right! Please do not write all your division bib numbers on one bib – this gets very confusing for the starters.
BIBS for Open Race and King & Queen of the Hel – you will get a Ski Challenge stretch bib to wear for each of these races. These need to be RETURNED after each race. Bibs for King & Queen of Hel will not be available for pick up until SATURDAY (we need the Open Race bibs returned first). You can still register on Friday for that race.
CHECK IN
Registration and racer check is in to the Sports Pavilion on the bottom of Helsinki right above the parking lot. You can also get ready in this building. The smaller garage will not be available for Ski Challenge participants.
