Parking:

No bus parking @ Silver Lake Park. Space for buses is limited. Please have your bus drop you off at the park. If your bus is staying for the duration of the meet, they can park nearby at Harry S Truman High School(approx. 1.5 miles away) and pick you up when the meet is over.

Harry S Truman High School - 3001 Green Lane, Levittown PA 19054

Parking is somewhat limited. I would encourage parents and spectators to park at the Nature Center and walk over or park at Truman and carpool over, if possible.

Locations:

Silver Lake Park: 1306 Bath Road, Bristol PA

This is the Nature Center lot. The lot closest to the start line is just down the road.

Harry S Truman High School: 3001 Green Lane, Levittown PA (for bus parking)

If entering from the Bristol Pike entrance, you can only enter from one way-there is a median preventing left turns from Bristol Pike into that entrance.

Awards:

Medals will be given to the top 15 runners in each varsity race and the top 10 in each JV race. There will also be a plaque for the team winner in each varsity race. 

Course:

The start line will be located in the open field on the Bath Road side near the pavilion and the playground. It will continue straight onto the trail and follow the trail all the way around the lake and past the Bristol Pike entrance parking lot. The course will continue onto the grass, across the bridge, and into the woods. In the woods, athletes will stay to the right and eventually wrap back around and come out the same way they came. They will follow the trail back over the bridge and all the way around the lake, staying on the trail closest to the lake. They will follow that until it takes them into the woods, do a loop in the woods, and exit the woods near a few buildings. They will follow the trail along bath road until returning to the field from the beginning and doing one more loop around, and finishing right near where we began. Course map is attached below.

This is a flat, fast 5K course. No spikes allowed-there are some concrete sections.

Entry Fees/Payment:

The cost of the meet will be $150 per boys or girls team. (Example: entering both a boys and girls team will total $300. Individual entries are $30, maxed at 4 individual entries per team.

Please make checks payable to:
