Parking

Parking for the Region Meet will be limited to the upper lot by the new Agricultural Center. Buses will drop off athletes in the parking lot closest to the track shed and park across the street at the Board Office. Spectators may park in the upper lot where the buses drop off athletes. Parking will be $10 cash per car, and money will be collected at the entrance of the parking lot. Please refer to the provided parking map for specifications.

Team Tent Locations

In an effort to control the number of athletes on the field and for safety and efficiency, we ask that teams follow the assigned tent layout around the outside of the fence to the track. Please make sure your athletes are inside the track only if they are actively warming up or competing in an event. All other athletes should remain outside the fence during all competitions. 

Entrances

The main entrance to the track we will use to allow athletes in and out of the area will be on the backstretch, by the JROTC course and Band tower. Again, to control the number of athletes on the field and for safety/efficiency, all other entrances will be closed once the meet begins. 

Event Limits/Athlete Limits

Per Region bylaws, an athlete may compete in up to 5 events, including field events and relays. For all individual events, each team may enter up to 3 athletes. For all relay events, each team may enter up to 2 relay teams. Any athlete found competing in more than 5 events will be disqualified, and their place and points will be scratched from all events they participated in.

Awards

Medals are given to the top three scorers in each event, including relays. All medals will be put in a manila envelope for your team to take home at the conclusion of the meet. Trophies are given to the teams with the top three scores at the conclusion of the Region Meet. A High Point Trophy (HPT) will be awarded to the boy and girl who contribute the most points to the meet. *HPT tiebreaker is if in the same event, best overall finish wins, and so on.

Amenities

As of 3/17, we are working on whether we can open our concession stand for the Region Meet. Regardless of the outcome, food and drinks will be provided for all coaches. Restrooms are located by the baseball field and concession stand. An Athletic Trainer and SRO will be on standby for the event. Trash cans and trash bags will be provided for your team.
