2026 Call To Honor Triathlon

Event Overview

The Call To Honor Triathlon has been established in memory of Rick Cashin, a State Police Captain who died in 2009 in a motor vehicle crash while on duty. This year will be the 17th Anniversary of the event. The event welcomes first-time triathletes and encourages family participation through relay teams (one person swims, one rides, one runs). Proceeds from the race are the primary source of funding for two $2,500 Rick Cashin Memorial Scholarships, awarded to graduating seniors at Masconomet Regional High School.
