Parking The Minnetonka United Methodist Church, located at 17611 Lake St Extension, has graciously allowed us to utilize its parking lot for the event. As the parking spots at MME will fill quickly, we recommend parking in their lot, and then walking to the school. The Youth Triathlon is sponsored by ALARC, Safeway Driving School, Dominos and Chanhassen Chick-Fil-A. Volunteers Needed We need volunteers to help with body marking, directing the participants along the route, helping in the bike corral, or supervising indoors. If you can help, please sign up during the registration process. We recommend that there is a parent or other adult available to help the athlete transition between events if needed; please ensure that there is another adult present at the event if you would like to volunteer.
