Nike Cross Regional Championship | November 20, 2021

Hello All,

This email contains information regarding the Nike Cross Regional Championship that is going to be held on November 20th in Mesa Arizona. We are encouraging all runners who are interested to look into this opportunity, as it would be great to see as many East Runners as possible to compete.  NXR is an amazing opportunity  to have another chance to PR and race with the team.

This trip is not sponsored by East, and athletes and their parents will have to travel to Arizona to compete. In the past, parents have taken some athletes who’s parents can’t come along with them, this is encouraged.

If parents or athletes are looking for flight and hotel information, East athletes who have already signed up are taking flight UA716 that is leaving Denver for Phoenix Arizona on Thursday November 18th at 8:30pm and are staying at the Residence Inn Phoenix Mesa at 941 W. Grove Avenue Mesa Arizona 85210 USA.

If your athlete is interested in attending, please let Coach Kohuth know immediately as race/jersey entrees will need to be placed soon. If enough people express intrest, a meeting will be organized over zoom next week. In the meantime, please email Kohuth at steven_kohuth@dpsk12.org with any questions.

Looking forward to seeing many of you in Arizona!
