Ellis Noell, Special Activities Director for the
City of Kings Mountain, said he expects a large
group of spectators along the routes, and espe-
cially at the transition and finish stations in
downtown. The finish line will be in front of the
gazebo at Patriots Park (corner of West Gold St.
and Railroad Ave.).
The first competitors are expected to come
across the finish line in approximately two hours
and ten minutes, he said.
In addition to the triathlon, which is sanctioned
by the North Carolina Triathlon Series and
awards trophies and bonus points to the top fin-
ishers, Noell said co-sponsor Kings Mountain |
Hospital will be sponsoring a free Health Fair at
Patriots Park, and several bluegrass groups will
perform at the gazebo fro m10 a.m. until 12:30
am.
In addition, there will be a one-mile mayor’s
bike ride, and a trike triathlon for youngsters
ages 7-and-under in which the youngsters will
run through a swimming pool and then jump on
trikes for a dash to the finish line. The winning
boy and girl will receive a tricycle.
Noell said the event will go on as scheduled,
rain or shine.
“We encourage everyone along the route to
come out and cheer the athletes,” Noell said. He
encourages persons who live along the routes to
make sure their animals are not running loose.
“We don’t want the competitors chased by a
pack of dogs,” he said.
Noell said he will be meeting with area law en-
forcement officials Thursday to work out traffic
control along major highways and intersections, -
and a meeting with course volunteers is sched-
uled for Thursday night.
The Kings Mountain Police Department,
Cleveland and Gaston County Sheriff's
Departments, and North and South Carolina
Highway Patrols are coordinating traffic control.
Noell said volunteers are still needed, especial-
ly at Moss Lake where boat and pontoon owners
are encouraged to help keep an eye on swimmers
in case of emergency. To volunteer, call Noell at
730-2103.
Volunteers will also be needed along the routes
to help law enforcement monitor major intersec-
tions, and to offer water to participants at various
points.
The strenuous bike ride will come from Moss
Lake to Kings Mountain and go through neigh-
borhoods such as Crocker Road, Dixon School
Road, through the three parks, and back up
Highway 161 to Kings Mountain. -
