See everyone on Monday.

Coach

Hey Everyone,

Looks like the weather should be good for tomorrow's meet at CU's Potts Field! They are having a bike race down near the track tomorrow, so they are recommending using the entrance to the CU Research Park, (first right on Colorado after you go west from Foothills Pkwy), to get to the track. Hope to see lots of parents at the meet tomorrow.

Coach

Hey Everyone,

I still need 3 volunteers to work the Guys LJ on Saturday, you would need to be at the meet at 8:00am, no experience necessary.

Please let me know if you can help.

Coach

Track Parents,

For those of you who didn't sign up to bring snacks this Saturday - please bring 8-10 of the items below according to the first initial of the student's last name.
A-F - bagels, PBJ, Cheese sandwiches
G-L - Granola Bars, crackers, etc
M-R- Gatorade, juice
S-Z - fruit

Thanks for your help in keeping our Coyotes well fed and energized!

Robin Davis

Hey Everyone,

I need 5 volunteers to help work the guys Long Jump on Saturday! No experience needed! Volunteers would need to be at the meet at 8:00am for run through's. Let me know if you can help.

Saturday's meet is once again at CU's Potts Field and will start at 8:30, buses leave from the school at 7:00am. Some of the same teams will be there and some new ones as well, should be another good meet.

Last week's meet ran as much as an hour ahead of schedule, so if you are bringing your athlete, please allow plenty of time.

Coach

Hey Parents,

I would like to enlist your help to make sure your athlete's are coming to practice prepared to workout in all kinds of weather. Yesterday was a good example of a day where kids should have been wearing sweat pants/tights and sweatshirt/underarmour, hats and gloves, and yet we had many kids in t-shirts and shorts! Not having the right apparel on cold days is asking for an injury, the last thing we want for our athlete's! From this point forward, athlete's showing up to practice without the correct gear will be sent home and marked down for an unexcused absence. Please help us as coaches to keep your athlete's healthy and ready to compete!

Thanks,

Coach

Hi everyone

Here is the registration form for camp this summer.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Please forward this to any incoming freshmen who might be interested.

Hey Everyone,

See everyone on Monday.

Coach

Hey Everyone,

There are no bleachers at the CU track, so you will want to bring portable chairs, it's a long day!

Coach

Hey Everyone,

Just a reminder that the meet tomorrow has been moved to CU's Potts Field with an updated schedule that I have attached. Please note that they will run ahead of schedule if possible. Make sure athlete's are prepared for inclement weather. Hope to see everyone there.

Coach

Hey Everyone,

The BHS coach has revised the schedule for the meet this Saturday and next, and will start at 8:30 instead of 9. Also, I still need a few volunteers to help with the HJ on Saturday, please e-mail me if you can help.

Thanks,
Coach

Track Parents, We have had inquiries as to the amount of food to bring for this Saturday's meet. Paula figured for those bringing food to plan on enough for 8-10 athletes. I know I told several of you to bring more; but I think the 8-10 number should be sufficient. We can then gauge what we need for future meets after this week end. Some kids do bring their own snacks and drinks so I don't think we need to over do it! Please let us know if we have missed anything. Thanks. Robin

Hey Everyone,

The meet on Saturday has been moved to CU Potts Field. This is one of the best tracks in the state and the site of the Big 12 Outdoor T&F Championships 2 years ago. I have attached a copy of the meet schedule and will post the athlete's events on Thursday at practice. Directions to Potts Field are: Foothills Parkway to Colorado, Colorado West to Discovery go thru the Office Park to stop sign track is to the North.

We are running the HJ at this meet and need 2 volunteers to help out our coaches. Let me know if you are available.

We will be handing out uniforms and warm-ups on Friday after practice from about 4-4:45 and I need 5-6 volunteers to help, please let me know if you are available.

Also, last chance to sign up for Wednesday night's nutrition class, please e-mail me by noon tomorrow so that I can let Ms. Olsen know how many people to plan for.

Coach

Track Parents, We have decided to post a snack sign up sheet at the meets. The sign up sheet will be located at the Mo Hi tent area. The first meet is this week end so we need to get snacks organized quick! An easy way to ensure enough food for our kids for this first meet is to have parents bring items according to the first innitial of the student's last name. So for March 6th A-F bring fruit, G-L bring bagels, PB and J, cheese sandwiches etc., M-R bring granola bars, crackers etc. and S-Z bring water, gatorade, juice. We will save whatever we have left over for the following meet (excluding sandwiches of course!!). If the meet gets canceled for any reason (i.e. major snow storm) we will do snack in this manner for the meet on the 13th. At that point we can start the parent sign up sheet.
Thanks for your help in keeping our Coyotes well fed and energized! Robin Davis

Subject: Healthy snacks for track meets

Track Parents, Track is once again upon us and our kids get hungry out there!!! Paula Nelson and I are coordinating healthy snacks to be brought to the meets for our kids to munch on through out the long days spent at the track. We need to get a parent volunteer to coordinate food for the JV games. Kent told me that there will be 3-4 JV only meets. If we could get a parent to be in charge of a sign up sheet for drinks and snacks for those meets then no single parent would have to be responsible for it all. We will handle the Varsity meets in the same way. Healthy items brought to meets in the past have been yogurt, bananas, oranges, grapes, granola bars, PBand J sandwiches, bagels and cream cheese, bottled water, juice boxes, gatorade .... you get the picture!! Nothing sugary or high in fat. Costco is generally a good place to get most of these items. Also a small folding table is always handy as well as a cooler or two for items needing refrigeration. I will send out a sign up sheet soon for Varsity meets and it would be our hope that 4-6 parents per meet can take care of all of the food and then their snack responsibility would be done for the season. I hope this sounds OK to you. If you have any ideas or input please let me know asap as I will be sending out more info soon! Thanks all and go Coyotes!!!!! Robin Davis

Hey Everyone,

I could use 3-4 volunteers to help time/record at tomorrow's practice. Please e-mail me if you can help out.

Also, for those of you who were not able to attend the meeting on Wednesday, Julie Olsen from the Monarch catering dept, is having a class on preparing nutritional meals for athlete's next Wednesday at 5:30 in her classroom. Julie is an accomplished tri athlete as well as a nutritionist and can provide some very valuable tips for making the right decisions when preparing food for athlete's in training. The cost is $10 to offset the cost of the dinner and dessert you will be making. Space is limited to 30 people, with 7 having already signed up , so please let me know if you would like to attend.
