This week's "STUFF"

With one race under our belts and two more this week, the season is starting to really get rolling!  This season goes by SO FAST, so buckle up!  Here's what we need to let you know about for this week:

PRE-REGION RESULTS
Results throughout the season will be available at www.athletic.net.  The Pre-Region Results can be found HERE

ENDURANCE ATHLETICS SPIKE NIGHT
Tonight (Monday) we have our annual Cross Country Clinic/Spike Night hosted by Tyler Shepherd and Endurance Athletics.  It is at 7:00 pm this evening in the Endurance Athletics Store (735 N. Main St in Spanish Fork).  It will be a great informational night and lots of great shoes discounted!  Come support our local running store!

TUESDAY'S HOME MEET
We have our first Home meet of the season on Tuesday, August 25th.  Payson, Spanish Fork and Juab will be competing against us.  The races will start at 4:00 with the Girls, and the Boys race to immediately follow.  WE NEED PARENT HELP, so if your parents are available, please let Coach Thompson know RIGHT AWAY!!  Thank you in advance!

AMERICAN FORK GRASS RELAYS
This Saturday we will be traveling to American Fork High School for the AF Grass Relays, which is a fun, unique race.  It is a 2-mile race (rather than the standard 3-mile race).  The Varsity races will be run Relay style with 5 runners running consecutively using a baton.  The JV races will be run as normal.  It's a great time!  The bus will be leaving Salem Hills at 6:15 am.  Don't be late!  The first races start at 8am!!  Here's the schedule:
8:00 A.M.: Girls J.V. 2 Mile Race-Frosh/Soph.

USU AGGIE INVITATIONAL
Next weekend (Sept 4-5) we will be traveling to Logan for the Utah State University Aggie Invitational.  This is our 3rd year traveling North for this meet, and it is a great race with magnificent competition!!  As part of the trip, we turn it into an overnight adventure for the team!  We will stay in Ogden Friday evening at the Comfort Suites, then get up Saturday morning to go on a great Trail Run in the Ogden area!  You won't want to miss this great time!  
We need to finalize Hotel rooms this week, so please pay the $50 to the finance office by THIS THURSDAY (AUG 27) so we can finalize our plans!  It's going to be awesome!!!
