Week 7 Updates

Last week was a great week for track and field! Our athletes set lots of new PR's, won lots of ribbons, and put down current state-qualifying results in two events. Scroll to the end for last week's results, place winners, photo links, and more.




TO-DO THIS WEEK

Order Your Team Shirt
Many athletes have already done this at practice this week. We just need names and sizes. Team shirts are funded by our fundraising efforts this year (see an update below). If they have not already ordered a size in practice, athletes should complete the form linked below by Wednesday.



WEDNESDAY 4/17
  • Spirit Night @ Parry's Pizza in Highlands Ranch @ 5-9pm - Come for dinner after the meet. Mention HRHS and Parry's will donate a portion of proceeds to our team. Thanks to our boosters for coordinating this event!

Friday 4/19 - No School + Prom -- NO PRACTICE

Saturday 4/20 @ 9am - Varsity @ Denver Christian -- Meet Info


FUNDRAISING UPDATE

Our athletes have done a great job asking for support from family and friends! 
  • We have raised almost 85% of our $10,000 goal. 
  • If every member of our team got one more $20 donation, we would hit our goal. 
  • We have 10 more days to donate. Go Falcons! 



PARENTS, WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Thank you to Angie Austell for signing up to host our final Team Dinner on May 3rd!

We're still looking for a host for our next Team Dinner at HRHS on April 26th. 
  • The main dish can be pasta, pizza, a taco bar, or whatever you dream up.
  •  Multiple families can come together to host. 
  • Please help keep this team tradition strong!
