CHSAA Modifications and What it Means to Vista Nation This Season
As you know, CHSAA has made modifications for the upcoming season. Please take a look at those changes from the blog post that went up a few days ago to understand those modifications. The coaching staff has also posted our thoughts about the upcoming season that officially starts on August 12th. We are doing our absolute best to make this a great season for all of our runners.
Unique Vista Nation XC Gear Order
Custom Vista Nation XC face coverings (pictured above) will be given to every member of the TEAM this year. Your registration cost for the fall covers these. We may need to have them at practice and at meets this season so we are providing them for you. Please get yours from Coach Dalby at practice this week.
Also, my good friend Pete (former Run Colorado owner) put together a really great gear order site for all of us! All items are optional, super cool, and available for any HS or MS athlete to order. And, all orders will be mailed to your home directly.
The site will be open for a limited time (about a week) so please order ASAP if you would like something. All gear is 100% optional, and there is no pressure to buy anything you see unless you want to. We will do our normal Denver Athletic Gear Order sometime in August where items like neon green Vista Nation shirts will be available at that time..
