INVITATION TO

THE 16th ANNUAL TIMES INVITATIONAL CROSS COUNTRY MEET

 

 

The Times Invitational Cross-Country meet will be held October 11, 2003 at Apple Valley Golf Course in Fairmont, WV.  Last year we had 23 teams participating in the combined AA and AAA meet.  This year we are looking forward to another exciting meet and would like to invite your team to participate!

 

The meet is sponsored by the TIMES-WEST VIRGINIAN and Fairmont Senior High School Cross-Country Teams.  The meet is WVSSAC sanctioned and under the guidelines of the National Federation of Track & Field and Cross-Country rules for boys and girls-2003.  Dave Ricer will compute results and copies will be distributed during the awards ceremony.

 

AWARDS Trophies will be awarded to the Team Champion and Runner-up in both boy’s and girl’s varsity races.  The first 15 individuals in each varsity race will also receive awards.  There will be no awards in the J-V races.  Refreshments will be provided for race participants.

 

COURSE  The course is approximately 5000m consisting of some hills and is mostly grassy.  It is on a golf course.  There is about a 25m cart-path that is paved.  The Varsity and J-V races will be ran separately in both boy’s and girl’s competition.  Boy’s and Girl’s J-V is a combined race.

 

ENTRY FEE  The entry fee for the race is $25.00 per team or $50.00 for both boy’s and girl’s teams.  An admission charge of $4.00 will be applied for anyone not transporting a team of five or more in one vehicle, in uniforms.  All WVSSAC passes will be honored.  Only Fairmont Senior High School Courtesy passes will be honored.
