Welcome Back!  We hope everyone had a great April Vacation.  Here is our schedule for the week.  It is a busy one with important information.

Monday - Practice at WMS from 2:30-3:45.

Tuesday - Practice at Wayland High School from 2:30-4:00.  Pick up will be at the high school at 4:00.  Athletes will board one of the first round of buses immediately after school and will be transported to the high school for practice.  Coaches will meet the team at the high school and then will begin practice.  We will not be transported back to WMS at the conclusion of the practice.  PICK-UP YOUR CHILD AT THE HIGH SCHOO AT 4:00.

Thursday - First meet of the season against Sudbury.  This meet takes place at the Lincoln-Sudbury High School Track around 3:30.  All team members will be transported to and from the meet on our team buses.  The team buses will leave WMS at 2:40 and we should be back to WMS around 5:30.  Please pick up your child at the middle school.  If you are planning on attending the meet and want to drive your child home, please bring in a note to one of the coaches stating your "pick-up" plan.  Due to a town policy, we are not allowed to approve a "pick-up" without a written note or email.  Thanks in advance for your cooperation with this.

Seeing that this is the first meet for many of our athletes and families, please keep reading to hear the details...

The order of events will be:

**During the running events, the shot put, high jump and long jump will be occurring.

**Just like other sports/teams that you have been a part of, track team members do not leave the meet until the conclusion of all the events.  Team members are expected to encourage their teammates as they compete.  It is this team support that really brings the middle school track team together.

Friday - Practice at the middle school from 2:30-3:45.

**It is our expectation that team members will be wearing the team uniform while competing in a meet.  If your child needs to order a uniform, please bring in a check for $11.oo made payable to Wayland Boosters.  The check should be given to Coach Farley and then a uniform will be handed out.  These uniforms do not need to be returned.  If you have any questions, please let us know.

**Finally, in order to compete in the track meet, families must pay the user-fee.  Once you click on the link below, please enter Wayland Public Schools - Athletic Program in the search menu to begin the process.  Here is the link to complete the payment.  Please make this payment so your child can participate on Thursday!!!
