SWC Preview: CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER

Here’s information regarding our team this week:

  • Reminder: Bring running shorts, shirt, shoes, long-sleeve t-shirt/hoody (for when it gets colder/rains), water (1-2 bottles), and a light, healthy snack to your locker for regular practice.
  • Parents, we'll be sending information out regarding Friday Night Dinners soon!
  • Any issues with uniforms, let us know! Stop by Coach Peepers' room if you need anything.
SWC PREVIEW Information:
  • We will be taking two buses from Learwood Friday after school at approximately 3:15 - 3:30 p.m.
  • We should return to Learwood around 6:45 - 7 p.m. We will have athletes call and we'll send a REMIND text to be picked up so parents do not have to wait.
  • Please remember to pick up your child in a timely manner as coaches have to wait for every athlete to be picked up.
  • All GIRLS run at 4:45 p.m.
  • All BOYS run at 5:15 p.m.
  • Bring uniform, apparel, running shoes AND spikes (if you have them). You will only wear your spikes for the race. Also, you might want to bring sandals to wear afterward, as your feet, socks, and shoes could be wet. It’s a much better ride home if your feet are dry. Bring a cell phone, water, sports drink (just one), and a healthy snack.
  • Remember, if you wear compression shirts, shorts, or just regular shirts/shorts underneath your uniform, it has to be BLACK! Try to  make sure your shirts/shorts are a solid color (black). We’ll review this at our team meeting on Thursday.
Avon Meet (PARENTS):
  • The course will be held at 3701 Veterans Memorial Parkway Avon, OH 44011
  • We have not received any information regarding this race (beyond the start times), but last year races start at the west end of the park (by fields #6 & #7)
  • Parents, Coach Walters is going to set up a QR code to be scanned by your phone. Each coach will have a clipboard with the code so you can scan your child out from the meet (instead of signing out your child). We'll cross-check this after the meet but hopefully this is easier & quicker for everyone.
  • We would like all athletes to stay for both races, if at all possible, so they can cheer on their teammates. We want all Avon Lakers to get cheered on through the end of their races. 
  • Because of this, if parents could wait to sign out athletes until AFTER both races, this will allow the coaches to watch the races and support all runners. Once both races are completed, you can sign out your child with coaches at the finish line or at camp.
Avon Course Map:
  • Last year Avon sent two course maps so we were unsure which one to follow
  • We're reaching out to see which one they're using and we'll send that to everyone
