The end of the season is approaching and I want to thank you so much for all your help and support this season. It has been a successful season and I feel great about where the program is and where it is going in the future. We have our Region Championship meet this Saturday. This will be the last meet for most of the team. Athletes who qualify for the State Championship, either by finishing in the top-6 individual Varsity athletes or the top-4 Varsity teams, will advance to the State competition on Friday, 11/6. Details about this weekend’s meet are below.
Reminder that we will be having our last XC Team Pasta Dinner on Friday, October 23rd, 5:30-7:00pm at the Lexington Woods amenities area (5465 Lexington Woods Lane, Johns Creek). While this event is for athletes only, volunteers are needed to make this dinner a success! Please sign up at this link to bring 1 or more items: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4AA9A82BA31-xcpasta1
Finally, our end-of-season Awards Ceremony will be on Thursday, November 19th in the Chattahoochee auditorium. All athletes and families are encouraged to attend. The auditorium has a capacity of several hundred, so families should be able to spread out sufficiently. We are still waiting on county guidelines, which will pass on once received, but for now I assume there will be no meals allowed and everyone in attendance will need to wear a face mask.
Region Championship details:
The meet will be at Boling Park in Canton -- where the Warpath meet was held earlier in the season.
Location: Boling Park. 1200 Marietta Hwy, Canton GA 30114
