We’re
so excited that our FIRST MEET
(which is also our HOME MEET)
is THIS SATURDAY!
We’re going to be running at Celebration Park,
and although it is close to many of your homes, all athletes who wish to run in
the meet MUST RIDE THE BUS FROM WHEATRIDGE TO CELEBRATION PARK. Students who show up to Celebration Park with
their parents and DID NOT ride the bus WILL NOT be allowed to participate. We realize this seems bizarre, but it’s the
rule, and we have to stick to it!
If an athlete is done and they want to
leave, they MUST check out with either Mrs. Roberts or Ms. Gailliez. This helps us make sure all athletes are
accounted for when leaving a meet. Athletes
are only allowed to leave a meet with THEIR PARENT; no other adult may take an
athlete from a meet! If you wish for
somebody else to pick up your child, they must pick them up from Wheatridge
after we’ve returned from the meet.
7th grade will be running 1
mile and 8th grade will run 2 miles.
The finish line for both races will be at/near the same location, (North
end of front loop on race map) and the start positions will be in basic same
spot but will head different directions.
Please see next post with the race maps.

Coach Gailliez & Coach Roberts
