On Track & Leading the Pack

Dear Coach,

The Slidell Athletic Department will be hosting a season kickoff relay meet

Saturday, August 26 th , 2017. This will be the inaugural year for this event and we

hope your high school and junior high boys and girls teams can join us for what we

believe will be an enjoyable and productive event. Understanding that the first

meet of the year is often difficult especially for younger runners, we hope that this

format will help them acclimate to the longer distances they will run as the season

continues. Varsity and JV boys will run a 6-Mile race while Varsity and JV girls as

well as all junior high runners will run a 4-Mile relay.

Race Site:

Slidell High School

Course: We will be running on a well maintained and clearly marked, off road

course that spans over 30 acres of school property and consist of 95%

grass surface. Exchange zones will be overseen by school personnel

to insure proper exchanges and honest competition.

Race start times will run on a rolling schedule with consideration for runners and

fans.
