Many thanks to our Course Sponsor, the Lansing Ques, for fielding a great team of volunteers to help us throughout race weekend. They started this evening, helping me set buoys to mark the 500m and 200m swim courses. It was rainy and cold, but we had a blast... and they learned some fun facts about mallard ducks.
