Home Meet Pot Luck Reminder and Volunteers Still Needed!!

Good Evening everyone. 

Just a reminder about the post-race pot luck to be held in the High School Commons right after the conclusion of the awards ceremony.   Here are the food assignments for the pot luck:

Grades 6-8: fruits/veggies, side dish or dessert
Grade 9: desserts
Grade 10: side dishes
Grade 11 & 12: main dishes

Families should bring their own beverages.  

In the past, we have been able to store our food in the Career Planning Center on the first floor.  We will be trying to secure that location again to keep the food.  If it changes, we will let you know!

Secondly, we still need a few more volunteers (4-6 more please!) to help us run the meet smoothly. ( Thanks to those of you already who have volunteered! )  If you can help, please email Coach Zeilenga or talk to her in person at an upcoming practice.   Volunteers: please meet with Tim Wright at 4 pm and he will have course maps handy and will show you where we  need to place parents so they can direct the runners in the right direction.   If you can’t make it until later, come flag Tim down on the course and he will assign a location to you for a later race.   As always, volunteers will not have to work the race their athlete will be participating in.
