6 A SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2018 Dunes City gears up for annual triathlon Fraudville fun Boys and Girls Club of Western Lane County’s Fraudville featured lip-sync performances by seven bands from Oregon Pacific Bank, Coast Insurance, Boys and Girls Club, Florence Kiwanis Club, Coastal Fitness, Siuslaw Elementary School and Mapleton School District. PHOTOS BY DAMIEN SHERWOOD FOR THE SIUSLAW NEWS Dunes City is getting ready to host the sixth annual Oregon Dunes Triathlon and Duathlon on Saturday, May 12. Even though the city’s sig- nature event is still months away, organizers are already recruiting volunteers to help staff the event. Volunteers help ensure that the races run smoothly and safely. Volunteers also play a vital support role for all of the par- ticipating athletes by provid- ing encouragement and hos- pitality. Many athletes have said that they return to the Tri/Du each year because they appreciate the enthusi- astic volunteers. Most volunteers work only half a day and all volunteers will receive a free event T- shirt. Again this year, Dunes City will award a $250 dona- tion to the organization that brings the most volunteers on race day, so make sure to mention your organization’s name when you register to volunteer. Volunteers are needed between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m. on race day, Saturday, May 12. Anyone who would like to volunteer can call Dunes City Hall at 541-997-3338.
