Good evening all!  As we embark on a weekend full of track and field meets, we look forward to the fall cross country season!  Please look into registering your athlete for a great cross country running experience!  Register now!  Although summer seems to have just begun, it will be time to lace up our running shoes once more and embark on a journey over hills, fields and woods!

Hello Track Families!

The first meets of the season are upon us and naturally mother nature may not make it easy. We’re very hopeful to get the meets in this weekend but please look for communication from your coaches if the meets need to be postponed due to weather.

Hoping that we still have meets this weekend we have a few notes/reminders:

• If your athlete has not received a jersey yet they can expect to receive at the meet. The number on the jersey needs to be visible, so it will go over anything the athlete is wearing. Please dress weather appropriate, but make sure the jersey number and color is easily visible.
• We still have volunteer opportunities available for the 2-3 and K-1 meets. We can’t run these meets without you. Please consider volunteering for one of those open slots.
• If you are already signed up to volunteer, thank you! Please arrive 10-15 minutes before the start so we can get you signed in, answer any questions and get you to your station. Field events begin at the track meet start time, with running events starting approximately half hour after field events start.
• As a reminder, please no running spikes, no dogs inside the track, no ball games in the infield and no sitting on the high jump mats.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

FYTA
