Admission: An admission will be charged of spectators, $5 per adult and children under 10 free. Since this is a region event the money collected from the gate after expenses will go back to the region schools.

Varsity region champion boy and girl will receive a trophy.
Finishers #2-15 in varsity races will receive medals.
Top 10 runners in the JV race will receive medals.
Course: The course is basically 3 loops, with the final loop being approximately 400 m shorter than the other 2. The surfaces range from grass, to dirt, to gravel trail and roads. The course map is attached.
Entries: All entries should be entered via ga.milesplit.com by Wednesday, October 31 by 11:59 pm. Please ensure that only runners from the 12 listed on the GHSA region roster participate in the varsity races.
Timing/results: Timing will be done using a FinishLynx system. Runners will have tabs pulled from their race bibs in the chute in order to ensure accuracy of places with times. In addition, all runners will be given a place card as they exit the chute, which should be turned in their coach as a backup in case of a catastrophic error in the automatic timing system. A second video camera will tape the finish of each race to ensure accuracy and to act as a reference in event of a dispute.
