Parents please signup HERE. We need, and would love, as much parent help putting on the meet as we can get, and could use a lot of help in a lot of areas.  Please also let the coaches know if you are able to help out with events.  Here are some things we can use help with:

Concessions

BBQing for concessions (cooking Burgers etc.)

Clerking at the starting line, Finish line, and checking athletes in.

From Coach Barnes:  So for this upcoming school year I will be teaching Sports Medicine periods 1,2, and 3 for 11th and 12th graders.  And Intro the Health Science periods 5, 6, and 7 for grades 10-12. Both are full year classes, with Sports Medicine being a CTE credit class and Intro to Health Science (basic anatomy) fulfilling the .5 Health credit for graduation and .5 CTE credit.  I always highly recommend taking Health Science over Consumer Health, especially for those who might be semi-interested in any kind of medicine or health care type careers. I would love for my athletes to come take my classes, and fill them up with some students that I already know.  Plus, I would love for all of my athletes to be familiar with the concepts and curriculum taught in each class. Keep this in mind as arena scheduling comes up in the next week.  

I would also like to see all athletes in a weights class if schedules permit.
