Good to know.

Have you ever wondered what you can accomplish with those mysterious F-keys on your computer's keyboard? You can do more than just rebooting your machine!

Reminder: Parent meeting tomorrow (Thursday, Aug. 30th) at 5:30 in the cafeteria. Doors will open at 5:20. This meeting is for all new runners and returning runners. Lots of important information about all the events planned for this semester. Looking forward to seeing new and familiar faces.

Also, our first practice will be next Tuesday, Sept 4th. It will be hot. Parents please make sure your child has comfortable running shorts, shirt, and shoes; a water bottle; a beach towel for exercise and warm-ups; and a small towel to get wet for cooling off during practice. We want all of our runners to have fun, be safe, and keep from getting over heated.

Any questions or concerns, please message me here, email, or call me at my school phone anytime.

Looking forward to a wonderful year :),

Coach Mullen🙂
