This week will be very exciting as we have a full week of practice, and the mock meet Please be sure to read the weekly newsletter completely for updated items. You can add more emails by going to our website and clicking on the "Join Our Newsletter" link I hope the rain misses us this week! If you missed buying our Storm merchandise, the Vendor has opened the store for one more week. The last day to buy will be Saturday March 15th, all items will be delivered to me, and I will bring them to practice in about 2 weeks. If you have already ordered please pick your order up at practice on Monday.

We will have make up pictures on Monday March 7th at 5:30 before practice. You can also purchase a extra package if you want and take that picture too. See flyer below!

This Saturday we start our volunteer program. The Mock meet is a way to get times and marks for athletes, and to show you how to help at the events! This is not an official meet and we will not do all of the events, nor allow all of the attempts in the filed events. See schedule below. We hope the athletes can try as many of the events that they want for this meet. All athletes need to wear their uniforms. We need to check them and make sure everyone has them. You will be receiving a sign up genius for all the positions we need help with. All of the jobs are easy and fun, and we will only be asking for 1 hour from each family this week!

We are now closed for new athletes, Please make sure you have uploaded your birth document, ordered a uniform and paid your fee, to stay on the roster, if this is not done by Saturday we may have to drop the athlete.

If you are no longer wanting to stay on the team please let us know.

Lost and Found- I have a lot of lost sweat shirts and bottoms and bottles!! They will be on the fence at the entrance to the track. I will keep them for 1 week and on Thursdays I will donate them. I have no place to keep them. Please check to see if your child has left anything. Also put their name on their items so they can be returned to you!!

Spike Shoes - As a reminder if you bought new spike shoes this year, the spikes that came with them will not be the correct size. All of our tracks use 3/16 pyramid spikes only. I will have a supply of them for sell at the table for $5.00 per set. Please be sure to throw away the longer spikes that came with your new shoes. Many athletes will have the same shoes and bags, please make sure you put a name on them. Have your athletes bring them to practice and on the field with them.

I do have some loaner shoes if you want to look and see if I have the correct size for your athlete to try.

If you have any spike shoes in good condition that your child has out grown please donate them for others to use!!
