Meet Information
The venue is at our new Cross Country course located at the Blairsville school complex. The actual school address is 100 School Ln, Blairsville, PA 15717. You can view a map of the course by clicking on Blairsville HS XC Course here or the banner heading of this webpage.
There is no Entry Fee, but I would like each school to confirm that you plan to attend and the projected number of entries for each race.
Tentative schedule:
3:30pm - open course for walk-through and warm-up
4:45pm - Start time for the Girls
5:15pm - Start time for Boys
On the Boys side I do not believe anyone has more than one or two unless you guys do. Several schools have a single boy. For that reason I do not think we will have a need to score teams, but I am planning to run a separate race for them.
As mentioned before we currently do not have plans to present individual awards or team awards, but we may come up with something before then. (I would rather it be a nice surprise for the kids then have them disappointed if we do not pull something together)
I still do not have confirmation from the trainer, but I think she will be available. Near the start line we will set up a 10X20 canopy (with sides) for anyone to use. Water coolers will be at the tent. Restrooms and additional shelter in case of foul weather will be available in the school. Teams would be welcome to bring there own tent as well. I will designate an area where they could be set-up
The course is 3K and will be a single loop with only about 150 yards overlap. The start is in the upper left corner by the baseball field. From the start the runners will continue down along the far left of the picture and cross over the finish area near the far end of the field. The runners will proceed around the loop till they cross the start line and down the left this time to the finish at the far end of the field before the turn.
