WADSWORTH MEET INFO


Cross Country Parents:


Here’s the information regarding the Grizzly Run at Wadsworth Memorial Park:


·         Athletes need to be at Learwood at 5:50 a.m.

·         Bus leaves at 6 a.m.

·         Boys’ Team runs at 9 a.m.

Josh B, Patrick S, Ryan B, Brandon B, Alex , George V , Stefan N, Alex H

      Boys’ Open (all other boy runners) runs at 9:40 a.m.

·        Girls’ Open (all other girl runners) runs at 10 a.m.

·         

Our estimated time of arrival back at Learwood is noon (we have to be back by then as the bus drivers have another route shortly afterwards. We will have athletes call home when we are almost back in Avon Lake!

·                We are dealing with a lot of injuries this week so if there are any changes to the team/open races we will notify the team!



Some reminders about the meet:



Bring something to eat as it will be a long ride home.

·    Parents, the directions to this meet can be tricky. We will be at Wadsworth Memorial Park in Wadsworth, Ohio 44281. The park is in the center of town where the football stadium is located. Bring your GPS and make sure to leave a bit early! Directions are on the blog!

·    Make sure to sign out your child with Coach Walters. She will either be at the start/finish line (this meet’s start/finish is in the same area) or the team campsite (which is also close to the start/finish). Only parents can sign out their children, they cannot sign out other athletes.

·    This race’s results will NOT be online for this race—this race is run old-school so we may need help at the finish line tomorrow.

·    This course, as long as they have not changed it, is awesome! It’s a medium-sized meet with some great teams, and it’s fun to watch the runners at this location.

·     

About the team:



·          I washed all the missing clothes from last week’s meet—they are in my classroom. There are a lot of items!

     This meet will help determine who runs team/open races at next week’s Cloverleaf Invitational. The top 7 runners will be on team, all other runners will be open runners, but all runners will have the opportunity to run. We may have to make adjustments, however, due to a few injuries we are experiencing.

·           If an athlete is injured, please make arrangements to see the trainer at the high school. Her name is Beth Hauck and she is available from 3-4 p.m., Monday   

                 – Friday. No appointment is necessary and there is no charge!

        We are getting a new tent! There will be no need for donations for a tent. Thanks for your help in this!



If you go to the blog for directions there is a spot on the right side of the blog titled: Cross Country Meet Directions.  That is where you will find directions to all the meets.
