All 6-8 grade runners will have our first official practice Thursday, August 29th after school to learn expectations, schedules, and warmup routine. Students will meet in the Gurrie cafeteria immediately after school (though the locker rooms are open for runners to change) and practice will run until 4:45. Please have rides arranged as there is no activity bus to take students home.

6th graders should get their permission slip into their PE teachers by Wednesday, August 28th so we can have a good idea of the roster ahead of time. Slips will be handed out by 6th grade PE teachers. 6th grade runners will ​take ​the band/activity bus from elementary schools to ​Gurrie starting Thursday, August 29th. Coach Wilkinson will supervise all elementary school runners in the ​cafeteria until Gurrie releases at 3:!5 pm. Holler at us with any questions.

ALL RUNNERS MUST HAVE A VALID SPORTS PHYSICAL ON FILE WITH THE NURSE OFFICE IN ORDER TO ATTEND PRACTICE. IF YOU NEED ONE QUICKLY, WALGREEN'S & CVS HAVE "MINUTE CLINICS" THAT PROVIDE SPORTS PHYSICALS.

The informational meeting is Tuesday, September 3rd and will begin promptly at 5 pm. If you can't attend in person and need the information, use the Zoom link here: https://d105-net.zoom.us/j/9869733800 . If you've had students come through already and have friends/neighbors in attendance, don't sweat it. We'll cover all schedules, philosphies, workouts, shoe selection, and IESA information.
