New this Year
In an effort to streamline, The Cactus ChaCha has changed to registration exclusively through Active.com. Don't worry, the race is paying the online registration fee so the cost for early registration (before 8/31/11) remains $20 for the Mini ChaCha and $25 for the Full ChaCha. Due to changes required by the park, participants are now required to pay the entry fee of $6 per vehicle upon entry to the park.
