Schedule of Events       After the Run

Dear Cross Country Runners and Parents,              

Cross Country is a 1 ½ mile course that utilizes a variety of surfaces throughout the run (gravel, pavement, grass, up and down hills, etc) thus getting its name cross country.

Runners need to train long and hard in preparation for meets.  Please be sure to hydrate (drink plenty of liquid – especially water) throughout the day.  Our season is limited and unfortunately we will need to run on hot days so drink plenty. 

Students need to listen to announcements and look for signs posted by Mrs. McAllister’s gym door and Ms. Keith’s Drama room  

Green – Practice is on.

Yellow – Practice is questionable. We will let students know by 1:00 if practice is canceled.

Red – Practice is canceled.   

A current sport physical may be turned in to Mrs. Sanford as soon as possible.  If you do not have a current physical you must get one before August 21^th.   

The is a $40 activity fee to be paid as soon as possible

Emergency forms must be completed before students can participate. Turn forms in by August 21st.

(Turn in Money and Emergency forms to Mrs. McAllister) 

Practice will conclude at 3:30, please pick on up time and in front of school (bus lane). 

We look forward to a great season.

Sincerely,

Holly McAllister hollym1@wcs.edu – 472-4501 ext. 4908
