1. New Policies and Procedures
Thank you to all who attended the Parent Booster Club Meeting this past Thursday night. For those that did not attend, we are implementing some new team policies and procedures for this season based on our record numbers. All the athletes received a handout in practice Thursday, and it was also discussed at the parent meeting that night. For those that did not see it, it is attached here:

As announced in practice and at the parent meeting, this week we'll be starting our new practice schedule. On Mondays and Fridays, we will practice from 6-7 AM, and on Tue-Thu, we will practice from 3:30-5:15/30. With the exception of 8th graders and STT students at morning practices, we expect all athletes to attend all practices. This is how you will get better!
3. Meet Rosters
Next week we have our first two meets of the season, County Meet #1 (Aug. 25th) and the Wesleyan Invitational (Aug. 29th). The race rosters for each meet will be finalized and announced next weekend (Aug. 21-22). We will run about 80 individuals at the County Meet and about 80 individuals at the Wesleyan Invitational.
4. Booster Club Dues and Uniforms
As a reminder, you are now able to pay for team dues and uniforms directly on our website (go to "Store"). All athletes and parents should pay for team dues and purchase uniforms through the website. Just a reminder that all athletes will need a uniform to participate in races.
Thank you for all of your support as we embark on a hopefully memorable season of DHS Cross Country!
