How do I watch my child? You may walk around the fence line to watch your child inside the track. The finish line will be the same for all running events. The finish line is located in front of the bleachers.

 

How do I know what events my child is participating in? All students picked the events they wanted to participate in. If they have forgotten, on the day of the event they will have a name tag with their events on their shirt. 

 

Will concessions be available? Yes! Snacks and drinks will be available for purchase. 

 

SuperSoak Fun: If time allows, a local fire truck will come and spray water over the students. This is an optional activity. Students have the choice to do if they do not want to get wet. They do not have to go to the water area. 

 

New Spirit Activities! We are introducing Paw Print Tattoos and Spirit Hair to help students show their school spirit. Please consider donating via our Amazon wishlist to support these activities: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/379YZ2Q10Q57G?ref_=wl_share
