Boys Track,

Toscos's Restaurant has generously offered/agreed to hold a Fundraiser Night Benefiting our High School Boy's Spring Track & Field Team.
 
It's very simple.  All we need to do is go to Tosco's for dinner on April 30th, between the hours of 4pm and 8pm.  That's it!! 
 
What's the catch?  Well,  we will ask that you tell your family and friends to get their dinner there that night.  You can eat in or take out!  Which ever you prefer - whatever you spend there that night (between 4pm and 8pm) Tosco's will donate 10% of their sales!!  No coupons necessary.  You don't even have to mention that you're with Methacton Boy's Track Team - but feel free to say that's why your there if you want to.
 
We hope you'll spread the word and help support the team!

Hello Boys Track,

This afternoon we had our first track meet of the year and it was a huge success.  We won by a score of 114-27.  All the boys performed very well!  Along with this success came some glitches that I will address in this email and at the next all team practice on Monday.

1.  All the boys were given a warm-up suit with a number in it.  They were asked to memorize this number so they could always find their warm-up.  This afternoon we had several boys tell us that they could not find their pants, but could not remember their number.  If you notice that your son has two sets of warm-up pants or jackets, please send them back into me so I can get them back to the correct boy.

2.  When returning from away meets we will most likely be dropped off out front by the buses.  I am asking all parents to continue to pick your son up out back.  This will avoid any confusion as to where they should be picked up.  All pick ups will take place in the back for both practices and away meets.

These were two small things, but I feel we needed to take care of them quickly.

Practice on Friday is for varsity sprinters and long distance only.  It will be held at MHS.  This means that pickup will take place at 5:00 at MHS.  The Penn Relay team will have an additional practice from 5:00-5:30.

Congratulations to the entire team!

Unfortunately, when I scheduled the long jump at the HS I did not look at the HS track schedule.  They have a home meet today.  This means that we can not do the Long Jump today.  So  Long Jump is cancelled today.  The boys will still have practice from 3-5 at Arcola.
