February 15, 2019 Mandy Buchholz, Clerk 205 W. 5t' Ave., Room 108 Ellensburg, WA 98926 Dear Mandy, Enclosed are the Special Event Application, flyers, map and a check for $200.00 to cover the permit fee for our 2019 Yakima River Canyon Marathon and Half Marathon. Additional insurance to include Kittitas County has been requested and will be sent to you soon. The nineteenth annual Yakima River Canyon Marathon is scheduled for Saturday, March 30, 2019, with a starting time of 8:00 a.m. on Canyon Road, a short distance south of the Flying J Truck Stop. The wheelchair participants will start at 7:55 a.m. All participants will go north on Canyon Road, turn right onto Berry Road, go east to Tjossem Road, and then .2 mile on Canyon Road. Next will be the Woodhouse Loop Road from north to south, and back to Canyon road for the remainder of the 26.2 miles. The finish line is located at the "truck turnaround" just north of the Sundown M Ranch in Yakima County. All Half Marathon runners and walkers will be bused to their 9:30 a.m. start at the 13.1 mile mark of the full marathon. They'll use the last half of the course of the full marathon. Answers to the questionnaires are attached to each page. Nothing has changed from last year's event when we met all of the requirements of Kittitas County. In the past, we've had as many as 535 participants who have come from many different states, Canada and from various other parts of the world. We hope to have 400 (more or less) participants this year. We're planning another great event on an awesome course and ask for your support for the nineteenth annual Yakima River Canyon Marathon and fourth Half Marathon. Sincerely, Lenore and Bob Dolphin, Co -Directors Yakima River Canyon Marathon and Half Marathon 310 South SIP Avenue Yakima, WA 98908 (509)966-0188 dolpliinnitearn @eartli lira k.net Encl. Many
