PRACTICE FINISH TIMES:
Middle School – If you did not yet receive the schedule from Coach Dobish, practice runs until 4:00 this week and next. Starting 3/17, practice will run until 4:30. There is NO practice on Wed 3/5, and on Tues 3/11 middle school athletes are asked to assist with the home varsity meet (weather permitting).
Boys’ Varsity - Per Coach Kotuby, the runners are usually done at 4:00 … jumpers and throwers are usually done around 4:30, so - in general - 4:30 is a good time for pick-up.
Girls’ Varsity – Per Coach Winfield, practice finish times will vary depending on their events, but practice will be over by 5:00 at the latest BUT MAYBE EARLIER. The girls will be told the day before what time practice will be over the next day.
Dear Parents and Athletes,
We have already begun preparations for the 2014 season. We welcome all our parents’ attendance at the meetings to get your input in the planning and decisions of the track boosters organization.
Please come to this website for continued contact from the boosters throughout the season. If you did not receive this info by email, that means we do NOT have your email address. Please make it easier for us to keep you updated by contacting Sarah Antal (santal1221@gmail.com) with your email address and phone number.
On this website, we will have meet schedules, fundraiser information, directions to away meets, end-of-the-season picnic information and more. All information transmitted through the coaching staff supersedes what you may obtain on the site. They know what's going on faster than we do and sometimes forget to ask us to update the website accordingly, but we will try to keep you informed as much as possible.
**PLEASE HELP!!!** We are looking for one person to coordinate our middle school snack shack this year. We only have five home middle school meets, so it is not a huge commitment.. We already have several experienced helpers for shopping and sign ups, but we need someone to be in charge of the concession stand for middle school meets. LOTS of good help promised!!
Click on "Snack Shack" on the left side of this page for online sign ups for the snack shack (for both Jr. High and Varsity meets). Parental help and donations are essential to the success of our program. Please make sure you sign up for at least one meet this year and also for the Beaver County Invitational or the Middle School Invitational. The more parents who help with concession stand duties, picnic, etc. the lighter the load for the few of us!
We are NOT requiring a candy fundraiser this year. However, each family is asked to donate $30 PER FAMILY. This check is due by Fri April 4. CHECKS ONLY PLEASE - made out to Riverside Track Boosters. Please indicate in the memo section of the check your son/daughter’s name to make it easier for us to track. Funds raised will pay for the end-of-the-season picnic and gifts and awards for our athletes.
Also starting March 4, please turn in a beverage donation for the snack shack. Please label your donations in Sharpie with your family name on them to make it easier for us to track who’s donated and who hasn’t. These can be left at concession stand at the end of practice and your coach will help you load into the stand.
7th & 8th grade: 2 cases (24 ct) of water
9th, 10th and 11th Grade: 1 case (24 ct) of pop
12th grade girls: 2 cases (24ct) of water
12th grade boys: 1 case (24 ct) of pop
