Good Morning Everyone,
Please see email below with some details for todays meet.

It is our first meet of the year and for some of you it may be your first experience in the track environment. As with any new program, there will be bumps in the road, but we will do our best to keep you informed and provide a safe and fun environment in which your athletes can grow and compete at the highest level.

Kim will have have the uniforms of those who were unable to get then on yesterday. We have athletes joining us on a daily basis so we will have uniform challenges until we get everyone properly registered and sized. We promise that everyone will eventually be properly suited, but I would ask that athletes attend each event with comfortable running attire until we work through all the issues.

The weather for today is expected to be drier than yesterday, but the temperature is predicted to be in the upper 50's so dry-fit under shirts and running tights are perfect for underneath uniforms. Sweats and a jackets are allowed during the moments between races/events to stay warm, but are not allowed when competing.

We are looking to set-up as a team in the bleachers, but please bring a backup chair just in case. If you have an extra canopy, please bring it as well to assist with protecting athletes and parents from the elements.

Suitable Bathrooms with running water and toilets are available, but extra toiletry items and hand sanitizer are recommended. Towels in case the bleachers are wet are recommended, as are blankets if the kids get cool.

There is a check-in process that requires us to pay the meet fees for each athlete participating so we are asking that athletes arrive no later than 11:30. This will allow us adequate time to get an accurate account of the number of participating athletes (Fee is will be paid by the commissioner). Once we check-in, we will need to issue each athlete a bib that will be pinned to them and worn throughout the event.

Lastly, we were able to do a recon of the facility and noticed that it is not in close proximity to a lot of stores, so it would be suggested that you pick up your water and snacks for the day prior to arriving at the venue.
