Region Weekend

As you know the big Region meet is just days away!!!

There is no school Friday and I would like to use this day to have some “Team Time” before the big race. First, I’d like to have a short run and stretch at 12pm Friday afternoon. After that, I would love for all your kids to be able to come out to Mirko Pasta for a team dinner at 5pm. This would be a great time to relax and hang out while I keep an eye on how healthy all the runners are eating before the big meet. Finally, after dinner there is a UGA Women’s Soccer game that we could go watch (and stay out of trouble). The game starts at 7pm and usually goes to about 9pm. The best part is it’s FREE!

To recap Friday’s “Team Time”
Short practice at the school – 12 to 12:30pm
Team dinner at Mirko Pasta – 5 to 6:30ish pm
UGA Soccer game – 7 to 9pm

I realize a lot of our kids don’t drive, so if a few of you wouldn’t mind volunteering to carpool kids over to Athens, hopefully everyone would have the chance to go. Let me know what you think about this. I’ve added directions at the bottom…

From OCHS to Mirko Pasta – go down 78 toward Athens. Take a Left on Gaines School Rd. Go down a bit and Mirko Pasta will be on your right in a relatively new shopping center area.

From Mirko Pasta to Soccer game – Turn Right out of Mirko and go towards College Station Rd. Turn Right on College Station and stay on it for a 1.5 miles or so. Turn Left on Riverbend Rd. and go down it for 1.5 miles. Then turn Left at Milledge Ave. The UGA Soccer complex will be on your Right.

****As far as Saturday goes… ****

We will leave from the school to go to Riverside at 8:30am. The Varsity Girls will race at 11:00am with the Varsity Boys to follow. The JV Girls will start at 12:20pm with JV Boys to follow. I imagine we will return to the school between 3:30pm and 4pm. If you plan on going, be prepared to pay $5 admission this time.

Let me know if you have any questions…
