2020 GNCC Virtual Ceremonies Announced
The Annual GNCC Banquets are a time of camaraderie and celebration as we crown our champions and honor our Top 10 riders in each class, coming together one last time in the season with our race family. These indoor events host upwards of 700+ people each night. Given the current COVID-19 situation in our country and the unknown health risks with getting a group of people this size together indoors, GNCC Race officials deem it prudent to forego the live in-person banquets for a virtual online ceremony via Zoom set for the same dates:
ATV & eMTB Banquet: Saturday, December 12th
Bike Banquet: Sunday, December 13th
Separate ceremonies will be conducted for Youth, Amateur and Pro programs. See, Ceremony Schedule below. Riders Meetings will be conducted via Zoom calls on the following weekday evenings for ATV, Bike and eMTB. Proposals for Rule Changes may be submitted to [email protected]. See, Riders Meeting Schedule below.
Call-in details and video submittal instructions will be issued at a later date.
Arrangements will be made to ship awards and prizes to riders in advance of the presentation, and class recipients will be coordinated to call-in at a certain time for interviews. This is an opportunity to show off your trophy room, garage, or girlfriend!
We know this is less than ideal, and that we all would much rather get together in person for such a prestigious event as celebrating our Top 10. But these are challenging times and we are in uncharted territory. GNCC has been fortunate so far with no reports of COVID-related cases associated with our events. We’ve made it this far without incident, so let’s see this through to the end and hope for a COVID-free 2021.
