Coaches and spectators not working are asked to remain in the stands.  Please do not interfere with those who are running
the meet.  It is especially important that no coaches/spectators/non-participants are near the finish line, as photo finish equipment will be set up.


We ask that teams do not sit in the front row  of the grandstands. This will help us keep the exits clear.
Also, please do not let your athletes jump over the railing, as lane eight is very close to the front wall of the stadium.
