Change of Location for Parent Dinner/Meeting
Hi Everyone,
Apparently the Brandywine cafeteria was double booked for September 7th. We are going to keep the date we had originally planned and just move the location to Bellevue State Park. We will have our meeting in one of the pavilions at the conclusion of practice.
We realize that many of you will be coming from work, so we are going to put in a group order for pizza. Paris Pizza on Marsh Road has a Tuesday night special of $5 for a Large pie. If you would like to place an order with the group, please send in $5 on the day of the meeting and we will pick up the pizzas after practice. You can bring your own drinks (there is also a drink machine in the park).

A Few Announcements:
**Please remember that you MUST have a physical to practice! Please turn in all paperwork to the school nurse at Brandywine prior to Monday's practice.
** Please bring $5 to Tuesday's practice. We will be using the last race in the Howard Laws Cross Country Series as our 1st Time Trial. $5 covers your entry fee and liquid refreshments following the race. There will also be a prize drawing at the end of the race.
I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday at 6PM at Bellevue State Park!
