Last Practice is Monday 10/7!

Hi all, 

Judging by the results I saw from the race, the team did amazing ! Looks like everyone went out and pushed as hard as they could for the last race. I was very surprised by the number of athletes in each race which made our results more impressive. Special thanks to Chris and Erin Murray who drove the athletes and coached them ! 

Just a reminder that last practice of the season is tomorrow Monday, 10/7! Please send your child with $5-10. We will play a game and then run into town for some ice cream! We will walk back together and have a little end of season discussion. 

I really enjoyed coaching this past season, working with all of you and your children. We are a strong team that has even more potential for next year. I will email out at towards the end of the year to see if there is any interest in some summer training to prepare for next fall! 

Thanks again for the great season!
