Meet Information

Dear Coach,
I hope that all is going well and that you and your athletes are ready for the fast approaching
track season. I know this is early, but I wanted to get this information out to you and invite your
program to our home cross country meet.
On Saturday, August 17th, 2019 we will be hosting an Early Bird Short Course meet and we
would like your teams to participate. This meet will be limited to about 20 teams and will
feature a 2 mile course for your teams to participate in. All divisions will run 2 miles.
The course will be flat and fast with a couple of driveway crossings that will be covered and will
be a great opportunity to run a decent time early in the season. If you are interested in
participating, please send me an e-mail and let me know your intentions for your team.
Awards: Will be awarded to the first 15 finishers in the all divisions (excluding the open race). A
plaque will be awarded to the first place team in each division excluding the Open Race.
