In addition to this lovely meal, the coaches will provide important information about the cross country season for athletes and their parents.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS: We will be hosting the regional championship on Friday Oct 18. This meet is where our runners will potentially qualify for the State Championships and is an important home meet. This is a non-instruction day at East, but we expect to have all of our team there. We will need all parents and athletes, even those not competeing that day, to help us run a successful high-stakes meet. So please mark your calendars and plan to be there. https://easthighxc.com/schedule/
