WL #2 – Soaring Eagle Cancelled

We are cancelling WL #2 at Soaring Eagle.
A crew from CascadeOC was at the venue all day Thursday, and while they made good progress clearing the downed limbs and debris that resulted from Tuesday’s bomb cyclone, there are parts that we cannot clear ourselves and the county is telling us it will take a week to clear the large down trees that block some of the trails. In addition, the park is located in a residential neighborhood that is still without power and non-working traffic signals. The forecast calls for more storms Friday. The COC board and I feel all these things together creates an unsafe environment for the 593 folks who signed up to run on Saturday.
I apologize for the inconvenience and stay tuned as we plan to reschedule!
