What is critically important is that we forge this Booster Club for our teams with our parents.

Please try to attend BOTH meetings!

The schedule shall be up on the web page this afternoon for Indoor.

FIRST DAY OF PRACTICE

Good day by most accounts. We'll continue to work on drills, drills and more drills. There are some folks that were notably absent. We need to find out if they are going to attend or simply "take time off".

You all know that those that want to be successful in the Spring NEED to participate in the Winter. Those that start out in the Spring are already three months behind and can't get caught up.

TRACK CLINIC

SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE IS HOLDING A TRACK & FIELD CLINIC OPEN TO THE FIRST 100 PEOPLE THAT RESPOND IN THE AFFIRMATIVE.

I HAVE SOME "JUICE" WITH THE COACH /CLINICIAN AND CAN PROBABLY GET EVERYONE INTERESTED IN THE CLINIC, BUT YOU MUST RESPOND TO ME THIS WEEKEND.

IT IS BEING HELD A THE NEW WELLNESS CENTER (INDOOR TRACK)

FRIDAY DECEMBER 4 FROM 4:00 TO 6:00PM.

THE PLUS SIDE IS BY ATTENDING THIS CLINIC, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GO TO PRACTICE THAT DAY.

YOU PICK ONE OF FIVE EVENTS:
LONG/TRIPLE JUMP

HIGH JUMP

SPRINTS/STARTS

SHOT PUT

HURDLES

I HAVE FORMS THAT YOU MUST COMPLETE AND WILL BE AT THE SCHOOL ON MONDAY FOR ANYONE THAT IS INTERESTED.

I WILL BRING FORMS TO S.I.S.T.E.R. ON SUNDAY...BEING HELD AT SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE

Pain is only temporary, while VICTORY is FOREVER!
