Houston IM News | Race Weekend 2009
The big weekend is here at last! Here's some key information you can use over the next 36 hours.
Houston IM 2009 InfoMap
Our updated 2009 InfoMap is available online. It shows where everything going on this weekend is located — late registration & packet pickup, race-day parking, the course, the hotel, the start/finish line... it's all there. Check it out now!
Volunteer opportunities
Volunteer opportunities are still available for Sunday morning! If you won't be skating, or you know someone who'd like to help, here's a chance to be of service while having fun in the sun with the best crowd around. Email us right away to get involved! (Please include your phone number!)
Late Registration and Packet Pickup
Late Registration and Packet Pickup is today from noon until 4pm downtown at Cabo Mix-Mex, 419 Travis (at Prairie), phone 713-225-2060. See you there!! (When you park at curbside, don't forget to pay the meter, as downtown parking enforcement officers are merciless!)
If you just can't make it downtown today, packet pickup and late registration will also be available on Sunday from 7:00am until 8:00am at Eleanor Tinsley Park — but to help things run as smoothly as possible on race morning, we strongly encourage everyone to come to Cabo and get things squared away on Saturday afternoon if at all possible. (Besides, you don't want to miss the Downtown Sightseeing Skate — see below!)
Downtown Sightseeing Skate
The Downtown Sightseeing Skate leaves from Cabo Mix-Mex at 2:00pm today — come join us! We'll go about six miles at a leisurely pace, and be back by 3:00.
Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend
One more thing: remember that Daylight Saving Time ends early Sunday morning, so be sure to set your clocks back one hour and enjoy an extra hour of sleep — otherwise, you'll show up at the race an hour earlier than you expected!
Here we go!
We look forward to sharing this weekend's festivities with all of you! See you there, and may you enjoy your best skate ever!
