Questions? Contact Heather Crowe at hcrowe@towson.edu
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are participants permitted to run either distance?

Q: Are older/younger Fawns able to participate?
A: Yes! This is a family event, so bring the whole herd!
Q: Will I be able to register at the race, or must I pre-register?
A: We strongly encourage pre-registration so that we can get an idea of the number of deer planning to attend. We would like to have an idea of how many deer are interested. You will be able to register on race day as well.
Q: Will I be permitted to participate if I am grumpy?
A: Yes, however, all grumpy, surly, and otherwise uncooperative deer will be required to dance the Cupid Shuffle in front of the group prior to the start of the dash.
