I have created an e-mail list with the e-mail addresses given at tonight's meeting. If you did not receive an e-mail from me, just send me an e-mail asking to be added to the list.
I will update this page again with information for the meet by Thursday night. Thanks for you do to support your students, BMS, and cross country! -Coach Brainerd For clarification, the parents' meeting will be TONIGHT at 5:15pm in the library. If your child tried out for cross country yesterday, then they are on the team. :) Please also bring the fee.
We will have our first practice today as well directly after school. Students may also stay for the meeting. If you cannot attend the meeting, please e-mail Coach Brainerd. Thanks! Due to the unpredictable thunderstorms of the past few days and tomorrow, tryouts have been postponed until Monday, August 13th. They will still take place from 3:30-4:15pm at the track at the high school. Parents, you can pick up your child from the high school beginning at 4:15. Please pick up your child by 4:30pm.
For tryouts, students will still run 1.5 miles on the track (6 laps). Because of postponed tryouts, the parents' meeting will now be on Tuesday evening after the first practice at 5:15. (I will announce the location at tryouts for students and post it on here later.) Additionally, I have created a Twitter account for the team to post quick updates. Whatever I post there will also be posted here, but I can update that account much faster. The Twitter handle is @BlackmanMid_XC And as always, feel free to e-mail me! Parents and students,
Due to the scattered thunderstorms today, conditioning is canceled for this afternoon. We are still planning for tryouts to be tomorrow afternoon. Coach Brainerd Due to the weather, conditioning is canceled today. If the weather clears up, run on your own at home.
Just a reminder that tryouts are on Friday. You DO NOT have to have attended conditioning in order to tryout, but I encourage you to attend conditioning tomorrow if possible. Thanks, Coach Brainerd Parents, I apologize for any confusion caused in today's cancellation. It did not get announced to students like I thought it would be. In the future if practice is canceled, students will be notified via announcement before dismissal. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me. Once we begin actual practice, I will keep an e-mail list and utilize the Remind texts to notify you of last minute changes like this. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and flexibility! There are some updates to the schedule I want to make you aware of. We will no longer be attending the Sept. 29th meet (Henry Horton Invitational in Chapel Hill) due to the Rutherford Co. Championship taking place on Tuesday, September 25th. This will be our only mid-week meet. Hopefully this also alleviates some fall break planning stress!
