3rd Annual NASCARP- Davis Pond Cup

Over a decade of holding Flyathlon events, we have received more than our fair share of Flyathlon "team" inquiries.  They typically go something like this:

"I don't run, like EVER.  But I've got a buddy who runs. And we both like beer.  Can we compete in the Flyathlon as a relay team?"

Which got us thinking about creating a relay race. Not to meet the ridiculous need identified above, but rather to create a Flyathlon event where teamwork reigns supreme.

That relay race is NASCARP.

In a Flyathlon NASCARP race, teams of two "drivers" alternate to complete 6 laps of a course. One NASCARP lap consists of:

• Running a fixed loop course... 
• ...catching and safely releasing a fish within a designated fishing area...
• ...returning to the start/finish area to "refuel" before the other driver is released to complete the next lap.  

Winning teams are crowned as the fastest in each Division (Leaded and Unleaded) to complete their six laps, six fish, and six refueling beverages.

But aside from creating a festive team Flyathlon environment, the NASCARP Davis Ponds Cup is primarily held to raise money for on-the-ground work benefiting Colorado's state fish, the Greenback cutthroat trout. Each NASCARP team has committed to recruiting "team sponsors" and hitting a minimum fundraising threshold, in part through those sponsorships, but also through individual donations to their teams.   

We hope that you will consider a donation / sponsorship to support your favorite NASCARP team (and the Greenback cutthroat trout in the process)!!!
