Thank you to everyone who attended the 77th Burro Days and the World Championship Pack Burro Race this weekend! We had 10 Long Course teams and 94 Short Course team tackle the races.

In addition to the 1st-8th place awards for each course, we want to give an Honorary Sportsmanship Award to Alexis Knight and Figaro who stopped along the way to check on and give words of encouragement to fellow long coursers.

We also want to give a shout out to the neighbors along the course who took time out of their day to not only be spectators, but also set up aid stations. We love the spirit of our Fairplay and South Park community!
