We had a great meet at Peirce College and there were so many big P.R's even with the Puke Hill ending. 

We do not have a meet this weekend in preparation for our Final Championship Meet on Sunday October 30th. We may have a Saturday Practice at West Creek Park On Saturday October 22nd I will send confirmation by Thursday.

Our final meet October 30th, will be very exciting as we will be awarding the top 3 teams and top 8 athletes on the podium, and all finishers will receive a medal. I know Sunday is hard for many of you but this was the only day we could get Central Park due to the construction causing over crowding in the park. We hope next year will return to our normal Saturday event.

Storm Last Day of Practice Event 

On Thursday October 27th we will be having a fun event after our short practice. Jane Woodworth would like to help set up Trick or Treat stations in the park for a fun filled cool down. We are asking all parents to donate a bag of candy and we hope to have at least 5 stations directed in your favorite Halloween décor. Her is a flyer of what we need. Jane will be setting up a Pirate themed station. Please let her know if you can help bring decorations for a station. Idea's may be a scaring ghost station, fun Jack- o- lantern station or anything you would like. This is a blast for the kids and will make their last regular practice fun!! Please the flyer for all information!
