Mark your calendars: The Loop Lottery will open at 12:00am Friday, January 9th, 2015 and close Monday, January 12, 2015 at midnight — 4 full days total.
The 29th Running of the Leatherman’s Loop will be on Sunday, April 26, 2015 at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation in Cross River, NY. All runner registration will be via Loop Lottery.
We encourage you to sign up as early as possible so you don’t forget. Once it is closed we won’t accept any new lottery entrants.
To sign up, visit the Leatherman’s Loop website during the lottery registration period and there will be links to the registration site.
Runners can enter the lottery as part of a group. Each person from the group must register (or have someone register them) in the lottery. Runners can add their group name during lottery registration.
We have put together a list of frequently asked questions about the Loop Lottery. It addresses questions about group lottery entry, duplicate registrations, t-shirt purchasing, and other questions you might have.
After the Loop Lottery entry closes on Monday, January 12th we will have the drawing for winners on or just after Friday, January 16th. Lottery winners and losers will be notified via email.
If you do not hear from us via email on January 16th or just afterwards, please contact us at leathermansloop@gmail.com so we can follow up.
We are interested in making the lottery as simple and hassle-free as possible. We appreciate any feedback or thoughts you have and can share with us. If you have any questions not covered above or in the Loop FAQ or the Loop Lottery FAQ, please get in touch via our contact form, or via our email address leathermansloop@gmail.com.
Thanks! See you on the trails…
