Newsblast #9 for MVXC: T-Shirts, No Practice Friday, Mt. SAC Meet, and more
Dear Parents and Runners,
This week's news round-up is brought to you by the letter "L".
Label, Label, Label Your Brand New Team T-Shirt: The team's official 2015 team t-shirts are hot off the presses and being handed out by coaches this week. There's a long, sad history of these lovely shirts being left behind never to find their rightful owner again. So, please use a Sharpie and put your name on the tag.
Loose Reins / No Practice This Friday: The coaches are letting most of the Mustangs roam free this Friday. No formal practice will be held as the coaches accompany part of the team down to Southern California. Runners should run on their own or with friends according to instructions the coaches will give this week in practice.
Largest Cross Country Invitational in the Country? Yes, Mt. SAC! This Saturday, the Mustangs will field 4 teams at the prestigious (and crowded!) Mt. San Antonio College Cross Country Invitational. The races will be webcast live on Flotack and results will be available almost instantly online. Find information about the races and links to results and videos, visit the Mt. SAC website. Follow our runners in these races: #54 JV Boys @ 8am; #57 JV National Championship Girls @ 8:28am; #59 Individual Sweepstakes @ 8:58am (our varsity top 7 girls); and #62 Division I Varsity Boys. Go Mustangs!
Looking for a Few More Helpers: Mustang parents, you are doing great! Thank you for all your help so far. We can see the light at the end of our season tunnel and we just need a few more volunteers to make our last 3 events successful. Please lend a hand at the pasta feed, the EBAL Championship meet, or the team banquet. Lots of jobs are still available. Click any link below to sign up.
Nov. 5: EBAL Carbo Load Picnic at Oak Hill Park

Thanks everyone! Go Mustangs!

Team Parent on behalf of the coaches
p.s. According to the bookkeeper's office, about 30 families have not donated. If you are one of them, please reconsider. We are still well short of our budget goal for parent donations. EVERY donation is appreciated and needed, no matter how small. Please send a check in to practice made out to Monte Vista Cross Country. It is definitely NOT too late.
