Hello all you enthusiastic runners and racers!
On October 8, 2011, Estacada High School will host the Estacada Invitational Cross-Country Meet at Milo McIver State Park. We will meet in Picnic/Parking area "C". The covered pavilion will be used primarily for registration, meet officials, and awards, so please bring coverage for your team from the weather, if desired. There are public restrooms available.
The meet is scheduled to start with an open race at 10:30 am. The course will be available to walk through at 9 am.
There will be a coach's meeting at 10:00am, where you will receive your packets with numbers. This year we will be using the Hy-Tec scoring system and tear-away tags, so please have your rosters to me by October 6, or entered and registered on athletic.net by that date.
The tentative time schedule will be:
10:30 am Open Race ($5 per person, any age, any gender, register on site at 10:00pm)
11:15 am JV/Varsity Girls (or up to 15 minutes earlier depending on the previous race)
12:00 pm JV/Varsity Boys (or up to 15 minutes earlier depending on the previous race)
1:15 pm awards (or as soon as possible)
Depending on the number of schools and athletes entered, we may separate varsity and JV races, the time schedule will change accordingly.
All races are 5k and are on mowed grass and dirt surfaces. The entry fee is $80.00 per school; the open race is a separate event and may be paid for at the time of entry on the day of the race. Please submit your check to Estacada High School.
We will present team trophies to the winning boy's and girl's varsity teams; there will also be t-shirts for the top 10 finishers in each varsity race. We have decided not to present awards for the open race this year.
As this is a state park, a $5 use fee per vehicle will be required at the gate.
We are looking forward to a great meet. See you on Saturday, October 8, 2011 at Milo McIver Park.
