About the Conconully Outhouse Races
Ends: Jan 19, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
The Conconully Outhouse Races are the original wooden privy races and an annual winter event in the town of Conconully, Washington. They offer a unique, whimsical take on traditional winter sports. Characterized by camaraderie, competition, and a good dose of humor, the event is as much a part of the town's identity as its mining history.
The tradition started in 1983 and continues annually over the Martin Luther King weekend. In this peculiar race, teams consisting of two pushers and one rider compete against each other on a snow-covered Main Street, propelling homemade outhouses mounted on skis.
The outhouses are uniquely designed and decorated according to specific rules. Each racing privy must have a toilet seat and a roll of toilet paper and be at least six feet tall from the base to the structure's highest point. However, these requirements leave room for creativity, creating various colorful and imaginative outhouses.
The race is split into several categories: Men's, Women's, and Co-Ed, with trophies and bragging rights up for grabs. The pushers' speed, the rider's skill, and the quality of the outhouse's construction all play a role in determining the victors.
Despite the chilly weather, spectators line the race route, enjoying the spectacle, local food, and winter festivities.
PLEASE NOTE:
Treat all televised and venue-specific events (sporting, concerts, trade shows, etc.) as estimated. Several factors can cause an event to move dates at the last minute, including weather, strikes, natural disasters, political upheaval, conflicting programming, pandemics, and current events. Because of this, always verify the event with the promotor before committing resources. LEEP often estimates dates based on the previous year's schedules, as the final dates are only a few months, weeks, or days before the event. If the date is known to be estimated, you will see an (est) following the date in the title.
