Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: Partly cloudy, temperatures in the low to mid 80s with winds from the west 10-12 mph. You'll want to wear more than just your uniform while warming up and cooling down, if only for protection from the sun. At the team meeting you'll be required to show that you have at least a t-shirt to wear besides your uniform. Those that have only their uniform to wear will be sent home to get more clothing. Bring clothes to wear at the meet besides your uniform.
It's expected that during the race you will wear the full uniform assigned to you. This includes jersey and shorts.
• You'll receive a bib number that you need to wear for this and all subsequent DCL meets (i.e. weekday meets). After your race and before you leave, please return this bib number to one of the coaches.
• Be prepared to help out with setting up and/or breaking down the course before or after the meet. This mostly involves the placement of cones. You may be asked to help by one of the coaches or one of the captains. 
• When Weston arrives, there'll be a tour of the course. If this is your first time racing on the home course, you will join the course tour as well.
• Once the course tour has begun, all balls, frisbees, etc. will be put away for the duration of the meet.

 What to Bring:

• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
• warmup clothes
• sunscreen
• water bottle - including a larger (24-32 oz.) bottle if you have one
• snacks for post-race (chocolate milk will be provided using proceeds from the Wayland XC Festival)

for parents:

• a map of the varsity course can be seen here. The JV course is a similar layout but about a mile shorter. If you stand near the start/finish line (just off the corner of the student parking lot, near the JV baseball field) you can watch most of the first mile and the last half mile of the race.
