2024 CALENDAR OF ALL EVENTS

Here is a printable calendar of all team activities. This calendar includes meets for middle school, JV, and varsity. It also includes activities such as fundraisers, pictures, and awards. Meets are color coded for each level of competition.



MEET VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Our coaching staff has been working behind the scenes planning for our upcoming home meets. Organizing and administering a track meet is labor intensive. A typical year usually has us planning for one or two meets at JM, but this year we have three. 

The most important piece of putting a great meet together is finding volunteer help. This is always a battle, but we seem to always pull through. Finding volunteers for three meets will be a challenge.

Without volunteers, our coaches are not able to coach athletes because they are working at he event instead. If you can help us, it is greatly appreciated. No experience is required and everything is provided.

Volunteers are needed for the following meets"

HELP NEEDED

Tuesday, April 30 (Varsity / JV) - MS will be in Pine Island
Friday, May 3 (JV / MS)
Monday, May 13 (V / JV / MS)

9 VOLUNTEERS SIGNED UP FOR APRIL 30!!!
