First Week of Practice
Official practice begins this week. Because of the weather we will most likely not be able to warm-up on the track. Please meet inside the front hallway each day at 3:10 to begin practice. Practice will be everyday, even if the weather is bad. The only exception is if the school district cancels after school activities, which is rare. Please come prepared for the weather with appropriate clothing.
Communication
Throughout the season Coach Kunz and I will be using the Track & Field/Cross Country website to communicate with athletes and parents. We will also be sending out text messages, and emails to keep everyone up-to-date on all things MVHS track and field. If for any reason you wish to be taken off the email/text list you will need to log back into the registration site, and remove your contact info.
Gear Orders
If you would like to purchase gear for the 2015 track and field season, orders will need to be placed online through Denver Athletic by Sunday, March 1st. We would like for every member of the team to purchase at least a team T-Shirt.
