  • Cheer participants on with loud applause, signs, chants, and contagious enthusiasm.
  • Play live music or set the mood with upbeat playlists that keep the energy flowing.
  • Showcase your group’s personality (examples: car clubs revving engines, dance squads showing off routines, or sports teams repping their school pride).
  • Get creative! Costumes, mascots, themes, and unique ideas all add extra fun and surprise for race participants.
