Volunteers distributed entry packets, answered questions and prepared for Saturday's race through St. Clair Shores and the Grosse Pointes.
Friday was a day of preparation for organizers and participants of the Shores-Pointes Adventure Triathlon. Volunteers prepared the bicycle transfer area, distributed entry packets and answered questions from participants as the athletes arrived at Blossom Heath Park. Lynda Charow, race organizer, said there were 241 athletes registered for the race. Last year, the inaugural year, there were 191. The growth in the race has also been beneficial for local businesses. Simple Adventures kayak rental and delivery service has gone from renting two kayaks for the event to over 30 this year. The race starts at 7 a.m. Saturday.
