Frequently Asked Questions

Can I register for just the events on Saturday or Sunday?

We've simplified registration: you sign up for the entire weekend so you can participate in any events Saturday or Sunday including the party Saturday night. You also have an option of purchasing a ticket for just the party online by midnight, July 8th or at the door.

Can I register for just one individual event?

The only "event" you can register for individually is the party on Saturday night. If you want to compete in a single event (such as the Great Falls Race) you still need to sign up for the weekend of events, including the party.

What should I do with my bib when I've finished the events I've entered?

Return your bib to your event organizer. If you are asked to leave a bib deposit, return your deposit to that location, at the party Saturday night or at the awards ceremony Sunday afternoon.

How do I pay?

You can register and pay online until Thursday, June 23rd. There is an early bird discount if you register before 9th. We will also accept on-site registrations at Old Angler's Inn on Saturday, June 25th, from 6AM-11AM.

Can I register on-site?

We are not permitted to register participants on National Park Service property, so our check-in at the Great Falls, MD parking lot is for signing waivers only. You can register for the event Saturday, June 25th at Old Angler's Inn from 6AM-11AM. However, we recommend that you register online by June 23rd to take advantage of the lower prices.

NOTE: on-site registration will not be possible for the Falls Race, so that the race can start and end on time. Falls racers MUST register in advance.

Does registration buy a pass to enter Great Falls Park?

No. A 3-day pass for private, non-commercial vehicles costs $5 at the park entrance. You can also get in with a National Parks Pass.
