Greetings,
We had a great mock meet on Saturday and
was able to get the kids times for their
seed placement for next weeks Meet. We
was able to learn a lot doing the mock
meet, it gave the kids an idea of what a
Track meet looks like, it gave our new
parents an idea of what to expect, we
were able to find problems that needed a
little more attention, and it allowed us
to get the kids seed time. all in all it
was fun and useful at the same time!
Thank you for your help, we could not
have done it without you!
After the meet I met with conference
officials and certified our roster so we
are set to go!
Please check the notes below for more
specific information on very important
events coming up in the near future.

Lost and Found!
Please remember
to LABEL ALL clothing and water bottles.
Already we have several new sweat shirts and
sweat pants in our lost and found donation
collection. If your child is missing some
clothing that they brought to practice and
didn't bring home, check on the fence near
the entrance to the track. Note items will
only be held 1 week. |
Photo Team
If you have a digital video camera we
would like you to take the kids running,
especially the kids at the track. Please get
a cd to Alan Bingham at the end of practice.

Track Usage
Remember that the track is off limits to
non-athletes during practice. All lanes
of the track are being used for our
athletes. If parents would like to
walk, please use the walkway on the
outside of the short fence around the
track. It is also a good workout to
walk the side walk around the entire
block, which is out Smyth to Copper
hill, to Decora to Dickason and back to
Smyth. Also if they would like to go for
a longer run, you are more than welcome
to join the distance group out on their
runs.
We need escorts of all ablilties to
assist.
