Dual Meet #4 vs. Bedford, 10/16/19 (rescheduled)

Team Store: Before getting into the details of tomorrow's rescheduled meet, the captains have set up an online team store for ordering warmup gear and even a backpack. Note that the deadline for ordering is next Monday October 21st at midnight.

Meet Site: Wayland High School

First race 4:15 PM unless you hear different from me. WHS Athletes should arrive no later than 2:45 PM. Boys race will precede girls.

Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: Cloudy, temperatures in the low 60s with ESE winds 5-10 mph. If the current forecast as of this writing holds, the rain that's predicted to come through won't be arriving until after the meet is over. It's still imperative that you bring clothes to wear at the meet besides your uniform.
• You'll receive a bib number that you need to wear for this, the final DCL dual meet. After your race you can keep the number or discard it, I don't need it back. I would appreciate getting the safety pins back.
• 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. 
• Course map: Please note the location of the starting line will be shifted slightly from where it was last year, i.e. the start and finish lines are not in the same spot. This is to avoid a bottleneck at the start where the port-a-johns have been set up during construction. The overall length of the course is unaffected by the construction.

• When the teams from Bedford arrive, there will be a tour of the course. If you're new to the team and have never raced on the WHS course, you should join us on this tour.
• 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
• plastic bag to store clothes and backpack/duffel bag
• 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:

• If you stand near the start/finish line area (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. Due to construction it's a little bit complicated to cut across from the north side of the course (start/finish area) to the south side, but you can cut through the field house to do so.
• Snacks are welcome, but due to allergy concerns the Athletic Director has asked that any snacks be individually wrapped and ideally have the ingredients written on the label.
