SPIRE UPDATED TIME SCHEDULE

 

SPIRE Meet 2/21

Hey Everyone:

Here's information regarding Saturday's SPIRE MEET. The Order of Events is below. A few things to review:

• I would leave around 7:30 a.m.
• You should arrive around 8:30 - 8:45 a.m., which should be plenty of time for you to check in, find the coaches, and go through your warm-ups
• Coach Kauffman and I will meet you there
• We'll set up a text chain through TEAM REACH to communicate with you prior to arrival
• We'll be meeting at BUILDING C at ENTRANCE C-31
• Make sure you've got TRACK spikes on your shoes (not cross country spikes)
• Also, if you do not have spikes yet that's okay too :)
• Athletes will have to fill out a waiver, I've got copies of them for you
• BRING THESE WAIVERS WITH YOU SATURDAY
