Weather & Event Format Policy
In the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions, Moon Parks & Recreation’s first effort, when feasible, will be to delay the race start time in an attempt to safely hold the event in person. If inclement weather persists or conditions remain unsafe, the race may be cancelled and converted to a virtual format to ensure the safety of participants, volunteers, staff, and the community.
If this occurs, participants will be notified through the following channels:
• Email communication sent to all registered participants via RunSignUp
• Facebook & Instagram posts from the Moon Parks & Rec page
• Electronic message boards updated with event status information
• A public notice posted on the Moon Township website (moontwp.us)
• An automated phone notification sent to Moon Township residents via Moon Police
In that event, participants would have until July 31 to complete the virtual race and submit their results. All registered participants will still receive their race shirt and medal, with distribution details to be communicated at a later date.
Registration fees are non-refundable, and no additional deferrals will be offered. Converting the event to a virtual format allows participants to complete the race safely while still receiving the event experience.
