Rotary Club of Vero Beach<\/a>, will be held at the Victor Hart Sr. Community Enhancement Complex in Vero Beach.\u00a0 This race will allow children between the ages of 6 – 13 to participate in a Swim, Bike, and Run multisport youth event that is geared for both 1st Time Triathletes and the seasoned competitive Triathlete.<\/span><\/p>\n\u00a0All participants will receive an anklet with an electronic timing chip<\/strong>\u00a0(so their split and total times can be accurately reported). \u00a0In addition, each participant and their parent\/guardian will receive a coded ID band for secure child pick-up<\/strong> in the Kid Corral, which is where the children will converge after crossing the Finish Line (see 5th Map under the Race Course Tab).<\/span><\/i><\/p>\nThis race will also include a mixed RELAY TEAM CATEGORY<\/strong> in both the Junior and Senior Division.\u00a0 For example, children who are not comfortable with the Swim segment can either: <\/span><\/p>\n(i) be placed in the shallow part of the heated pool (with lifeguards in the water with them), where they have the option of walking the required distance on the bottom of the pool, or<\/span><\/p>\n(ii) register a Relay Team and have a friend or relative complete the Swim segment (and the same holds true if a child may be uncomfortable with the Run or Bike segment).<\/span><\/p>\nNO CHILD WILL BE TURNED AWAY<\/strong> for cost, disability, or skill level – and the Rotary Club of Vero Beach ensures that ALL PROCEEDS BENEFIT YOUTH IN OUR COMMUNITY<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Under the race direction of Integrity Multisport, this event will be Safe, Fun, and Professional for all athletes using USA Triathlon rules and guidelines (however this is NOT a USAT Sanctioned event).\u00a0 Race Central and the Swim segment will be located at the Gifford Aquatic Center.<\/span><\/p>\nMAXIMUM of 300 PARTICIPANTS\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n[Note:<\/strong> In our inaugural event last year, we sold out to 200 children – so we suggest you register early<\/strong>, and be sure to take advantage of the Early Bird Discount!\u00a0 The $20 Early Bird Entry Fee increases to $35 after Nov. 1, 2024.]<\/em><\/p>\nDIVISIONS<\/h2>\n
