CHECKING IN FOR FIELD EVENT: Athletes will check in at the site of the field event. If they are doing multiple field events, make sure they let the event judge know. High Jump takes precedent over all field events. When they are done with high jump, they can then report to the other field event. If you are an event judge and you have an athlete participating in another field event, then you can go ahead and run that event. When the athlete shows up from his or her other event, then you can run that athlete in a 2nd flight.
CHECKING IN FOR RUNNING EVENT: Make sure when the runner hears 1st call they must check in to the control tent to get there lane number. By the 3rd call they must report to the clerk of court. From the clerk of court they will be sent to the track for their event.
ENTERING AND EXITING TRACK: All participants will enter and exit the track on the far end near the track building.
TEAM LOCATION:There will be no teams allowed to set up in the infield. The infield will only be used for warm-ups. The teams can set up tents past the concession stand area. That area is located between the track and the softball area. IF YOU ARE NOT A COACH OR AN ATHLETE YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED IN THE INFIELD.
