September 04, 2014 (Wilmington, NY) – The countdown to the NYSEF Climb to the Castle Rollerski Race on Saturday, September 6 has started – please review the following important updates.

Whiteface Toll Road Construction Update
Road construction is being done this week on the final mile climb to the Whiteface Mountain summit. While the goal is to finish at the castle, the finish line may have to be moved down the mountain. The back-up plan is to finish at the “Lake Placid Turn” at mile 4. Start and warm-up area would stay at the Whiteface Toll Booth. More details available Friday afternoon after we do another check with road construction.

Please note: We ask athletes to organize themselves for carpooling back down the mountain after the race. We will have 1-2 NYSEF vehicles available for transportation as well. Be sure to pack a set of dry/warm clothes as the weather at the Whiteface summit can be completely different from the start area. Clothing bags can go up in the NYSEF van if needed.

US Ski Team and US Biathlon National Team are racing…add your name to the list.

Online registration closes Thursday, September 4 at 12 noon.
