September 11, 2010

 

On behalf of Williamstown High School, Parkersburg High School, and Parkersburg South High School, we are extending an invitation for your school to be a part of the 10th annual Chick-Fil-A Invitational on September 11th, 2010.  The meet site is the Wood County 4-H Camp on Butcher Bend Road in Mineral Wells, West Virginia (See directions and details on back).

 

You can preorder T-shirts by visiting www.RunWV.com/shirt.pdf.

 

The course is run entirely on grass and is a combination of gently rolling hills and flat areas, which should provide for very good times.  The high school races will be 5,000 meters, the middle school races will be 3,000 meters, and the elementary races will be 1,500 meters.  There will be a small admission fee for spectators.  Change facilities and restrooms will be on site at the campgrounds.  Shower facilities will be available nearby.  There will be a large area for school tents and parking for at least 5,000 cars.  In the event of inclement weather, various buildings are available for cover for participants as well as spectators.  Exclusive Chick-Fil-A Invitational T-shirts will be on sale on site.  Hot and cold concessions will be available.  The awards’ ceremony will be on site, next to the start/finish area.
