Hi Everyone,
It looks like the weather will be perfect. We should have more than 100 athletes competing tomorrow at Menlo Track. Participants so far are:
Menlo School - 6th through 8th grade boys/girls
Valley Christian - boys and girls
Hillview/La Entrada/Corte Madera - some athletes since their program starts next week
Castilleja - 7th grade girls
King's Academy - small group of kids :-)
One of the questions is that if events are run separately between grades and gender. The answer is yes, except for the 800M that is combined to save some time.
Hope to see you tomorrow!

P.S. There will also be Menlo High School athletes helping out the kids. As mentioned before, this is a nice, fun, and casual meet to kick off the season so if you have kids interested in track, let them come out and try it out! This is the perfect opportunity to do that.
The Menlo School Track Meet is set for 4/17/07. Please email jcrew155@yahoo.com if you plan to attend. Also, include approximately how many kids you will be bringing and from what divisions. Thank you and hope to see you out there again this year!

-This meet will not be scored, only times will be given to the athletes at the end of their races. Therefore, it is the athlete’s responsibility to report their times to their coaches.
