Prizes

Race Clothing
It is recommended that kids wear t-shirt and shorts, or clothes suitable for physical activity. As there is water and mud on the course it is recommended that long pants are not worn. Shoes are optional, and bare feet will be at the risk of the individual. Participants will need to bring a spare change of warm clothing, as they will get wet and cold during their race. 

Food and Drink
Rapid Relief Team will be providing a sausage sizzle for $2 each. Other food and drink purchases can be made at Stag 13 Café. There will be Eftpos available however we recommend bringing cash. It is a good idea for each child to bring a water bottle and lunch box with them. Water will be available around the venue for people to fill their water bottles up. There will not be a set lunch break as there will be plenty of time for children between the race/s they are involved in.

Sun Smart
Please ensure children have appropriate sun hats and are protected with sunblock. There will be shade available when kids are seated in the grand stand; however, when they are competing there will be limited shade.

First Aid
A registered nurse will be on site during the event, to tend to any injuries or accidents sustained.  If at any stage participants are being assessed by the nurse in the 1st Aid room, an announcement will go over the stadium to ask for the Teacher in Charge to report to the unit. Please be aware of this on the day.  Please bring a first aid kit for minor injuries for your students.
