must bring warm-ups
(sweat pants and
sweatshirt) to all

(LABEL ALL CLOTHING).
Please
bring a large bottle (20
ounces) of water to all
practices and meets.
When the weather heats
up, more water is
needed.
Each
athlete must have a pair
of good
RUNNING SHOES.
Cross training,
basketball or
mid/high tops are
NOT ACCEPTABLE and
may cause injury. Please
check that the upper
part of the shoe is

Lap-a-thon
A SCTC Storm tradition
is set
for March 17, 2008!
We are
excited
about each
and every
athlete
participating.
During the
practice
athletes
will run
laps on the
track for
one hour.
This is a
very fun
event for
the kids and
an important
fundraiser
for our
team. Money
from this
event keeps
our
registration
fee low and
helps us
provide
important
track meets
and training
equipment
for our
athletes.
This is a
music-motivated
event;
singing
along,
running to
the tempo!
Oh WAIT!
YOU'RE NOT A
DISTANCE
RUNNER!? NOT
important!
This is a
fundraiser
not a race ~
run or
walk/dance,
create an
hour-long
relay team!
Challenge
yourself!
Just recruit
your
donations
accordingly!
The more
per
athlete
sponsors
you get
the more
donations!
There
are 2
ways for
sponsors
to
support
our
athletes,
one is a
per lap
donation
such as
$3.00
per lap
for you
distance
runners;
the
other is
simply a
flat
donation
of any
amount,
for
example
$40.00.
The
Grand Prize
is 4 Park
Hopper
tickets to
Disneyland/California
Adventure
to the top
athlete who
raise the
most funds
for the
club.
If for some
reason you
are unable
to
participate
the night of
the event,
families are
encouraged
to OPT OUT
by giving a
tax-deductible
donation of
$40.00
payable to
the SCTC.
This is our
only team
fundraiser
and requires
our team
family's
support.
Your effort
will be
recognized
and
appreciated.
Participants
(athletes
collecting
donations
from their
sponsors for
$40 or more)
in past
years have
received a
Storm
Lap-a-thon
tee shirt
or
runner's
water
bottle.
When turning
in money, we
ask that
only
ONE CHECK
PER FAMILY,
payable to
SCTC,
be written
for the
entire
amount the
athlete has
raised.
(Sponsor
check
donations
written
directly to
the club by
non-members
may not be
credited to
your child.)
You can
download
a pledge
form
here,
the due
date to
turn in
the
funds is
April 3,
2008.
Flat
donations
can be
turned
in
immediately.
Prizes
will be
awarded
based on
the most
funds
raised
and
turned
in by
April 3,
2008
7:45pm.
Funds
will
still be
accepted
after
that
date but
won't
count
towards
the
grand
prizes.
