Dear Parents/Guardians:
Cross Country season has arrived!
In preparation for the upcoming meets, we will practice on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at lunch time (12:20 pm-12:45 pm).
Practices will consist of some conditioning drills in the gymnasium and running practice laps outside. Students are expected to be in full gym strip with running shoes and a water bottle.
There will be two Cross Country meets:
Great Pumpkin Run is on Thursday, October 7 at Fraser River Heritage Park on Mary Street.
Hatzic Harvest Run is on Thursday, October 14 at Hatzic Park on Draper Street opposite Hatzic Elementary.
We will require parent drivers to transport students to and from the meets. If you drive a student other than your own, you will need to have a completed Criminal Record Check done. Students who are carpooling must wear a mask.
PARENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ARRANGING TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE GAMES FOR THEIR CHILD.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Adam & Mrs. Gariwa
