In memory of Hero volunteer, karting enthusiast, competitor and winner, Chris Rachuba, who passed away from blood cancer, There Goes My Hero partners with United Karting and Rachuba to host The Chris Rachuba Cup every year.

Join us in honoring Chris Rachuba's legacy by volunteering with us. As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to help with event needs and even race on the track! Your support will make a difference in the fight against blood cancer while celebrating a true karting enthusiast.

Please note that volunteers must be 18 years old or older to participate in the race.

*During this volunteer opportunity, you will be racing and also may help with a variety of tasks, including checking in teams, distributing goodie bags, selling raffle tickets, managing the bone marrow donor registry drive, assisting with cleanup, and more. It's an all hands on deck day, so the specific task you'll be working on will depend on the needs at the moment.*
