TNC has recently acquired the rights to Kansas City's first, original adventure race - The Dirty Duo! This adventure race is gearing up for its FIFTH ANNUAL event Saturday, June 23, 2012, at the Kansas Speedway! It's a nearly six-mile race + obstacle course with four categories to race. Anyone from 5 years-old and up can participate.
This year, ALL proceeds will benefit TNC Community. This is a terrific fundraiser for the agency. There's lots of ways to get involved. We need racers, sponsors, volunteers …and donations of cash and prizes.
The theme is “Together we can win.” Let’s celebrate what makes Kansas City such a great philanthropic city. Together – with your help and with our sponsors’ help – we can win and have an amazing fundraiser for adults with disabilities. Come on out and join us, and be a part of one of KC's most fun and unique races!
Can’t wait to race? There are FOUR categories to register for the race. Anyone 5-years-old and up can participate!
Interested in being a volunteer? Volunteering is one of the best ways to get involved! All volunteers will receive free race shirts, race food before and after the race, give-a-ways, and a 75% discount into a future Dirty Duo race! We have many opportunities available for volunteers. We will need help with our Race Start / Finish area, parking, racer check-in, event timing, water and food, the awards ceremony, manning mystery obstacles, course monitors, watering the mud pit and much more. We also need a minimum of 3 volunteers at each of the five mystery obstacles instructing racers. We have plenty of options available to volunteers, and we will work hard to accommodate your time frames and interests.
Interested in sponsoring? We are seeking sponsors for the event at five levels of support with each increasing level receiving additional rewards. Donations are tax deductible (Tax ID # 44-0608429).
