Welcome: Welcome back, campers… and may the luck be ever in your disfavor.
Superstition: They say strange things happen every Friday the 13th — but when it lands right before St. Patrick’s Day, you can bet the leprechauns are up to no good.
Join Us: A moonlit race where green fog meets grit, and superstition takes the scenic route down the Long Beach shoreline.
Community: You’ll be part of something rare — a tribe that runs through the chaos with heart, humor, and a little mischief.
