August 26th-31st Weber State Invite

Great job this last week at Pre-Region. Both our boys and girls teams won the meet with great showings as a team top to bottom. Thank you for working hard and representing Farmington well. Thank you to the parents who helped with treats at the meet. That was very nice to have. As a reminder we have a sign up sheet for snacks and team dinners which is here: Team Dinner / Snack Sign Up 

We need to make sure practice is a priority. We will start taking attendance this week at practice. You need to talk to a coach if you are going to miss and it better be a rare thing. You signed a team disclosure that said you would block 3-5 PM out for practice so you shouldn't be working during that time. Let's make this team better by being at practice everyday. We need everyone!

This week we have a meet on Friday at the Weber State Invite (El Monte Golf Course). Here is some info for parents coming to the meet to watch:
*No parking along Valley Drive. We will have signs to direct parking. There will be two spectator entrances—by the El Monte Clubhouse and on the north side of the golf course. Spectators will be charged $5 each.

We had a great turn out at our Phoenix 5k yesterday. THANK YOU to everyone who made it possible. All those who brought in prizes, parents and athletes helping with set up and take down, and a big thanks to the Spackmans and Hogans for bringing equipment to help make the breakfast run smoothly. We have the best group of kids and parents around. Talking with other coaches/friends in other areas they are amazed at how much support we have here at Farmington and this could not have been possible without you all so THANK YOU. Here are the results from the Phoenix 5k (they are also posted in the results tab).
