Welcome to Nantucket Iron Teams Relay! It’s the 30th annual community race for a cause – the
kids. Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) on Nantucket part of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod and the Islands, affiliated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, the oldest one-to-one mentoring agency in the country. Our community-based program
is modeled on national standards that have been proven effective over the years in helping
children and youths face challenges in their lives simply by having an adult friend. Over the years
we have served hundreds of island children and foresee continued steady growth. We also offer a
number of other programs that meet the specific needs of the island, including Early Bird
Breakfast Buddies where high school seniors meet their elementary school "Breakfast Buddy"
twice a week for breakfast, board games and conversation. Over the years, we have mentored
hundreds of children and youths - and served them thousands of pancakes.
So, Run, Paddle, Swim, Bike for the finish. We hope you enjoy and have fun for you and your
team. You’ll be helping the kids as well!
