| Who: |
Guys & Girls in grades 1st-12th
The track team is open to anyone in 1st grade-High school. The 1st-4th graders will only be able to practice and compete in the national meet -- they do not have any regular season meets. We have 6 Jr. High meets (5th-8th grade) and 2 meets for those in high school -- we are hoping to add a couple of more high school meets but we are not sure. In the Jr. High meets, the 5th and 6th graders will have to compete up with the 7th graders.

| When: |
April through May
We are planning to attend the home-school national track meet in Springfield, MO on May 20-21. (Our girls soccer team will also be competing in a tournament down there at the same time). There are a few distance events on Friday (5/20), but most of the events will be run on Saturday (5/21). There were 4 different age divisions last year: 8 & under, 11 & under, 14 & under, and 18 & under (the age determination is based on the athlete's age on 9/1/10). I know this meet seems like a long way to drive; however it is a lot of fun and our athletes will be able to compete for a chance to become a home-school national champion. We all stay at the same hotel (Ramada Oasis) and the hotel has a pool, hot tub, and a hot breakfast. The total cost will be $75/night for the hotel. |
