Weekly News / by Coach Laura
Welcome to Week 11! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Sundays continue to be fun racing practices for Seniors and all Junior Elite groups. We had a very competitive Australian relay yesterday. I think everyone had a great time with the relay ending in a tie.
Congratulations to Ronnie Roach for volunteering and completing the Starting portion of USA officiating in Newport News this past weekend. Thanks to Ronnie and many other parents who are volunteering to become officials.
Please remember to sign up for the CGBD B/C meet and/or other meets by this Friday, Nov 25. The coaching staff wants to wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving!
