SPRING Track & Field:
WE NEED PARENT VOLUNTEERS TO "RUN IT!"
The SJS K-8 track program has been run entirely by parent volunteers for each of the past 3 years. In order for the program to continue, we need to begin transition of the administration of the program to 2-3 new parent volunteers for the 2018 Spring Track Season!
Administrative duties can be easily shared and entail the following: monthly attendance at League meetings, ongoing parent communications, coordination of volunteers, and the administration of the Hy-Tek track software for each of the meets.
Have a wonderful weekend!
God Bless!
