Saturday was so much fun! It was the first race we have had with another team in over 2 years! Thank you all so much for helping to make this special for the kids, not only on our team, but for others who have not even been on a track yet.
We can really see the difference in motivation now that the athletes can RACE!!
This Saturday we will again have a few teams with us, but we can finally start in the morning!! The meet will start at 8:00 am for warm up. Please make sure your athlete arrives by 8:15 if they would like to do the 4x100 relay as it is very hard for the coaches to put the teams together and we want to allow as many athletes as possible to try the relay . The schedule will be a little different this week, please see below!
We are still selling uniforms this week for those who would like one. They are completely optional and limited to stock on hand, but the kids were very proud to be wearing a uniform!!
We will need all parents to volunteer for the finish line or staging the events. By now you can see all jobs are super easy and so much fun!! We will be sending out a Volunteer Sigh up Genius in a few days so that you can sign up and for the time or event We will be asking all parents to help for about 1 hour only! The day will be a little longer so please make sure you bring a light snack, lunch, and plenty of water!!
