CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR BOYS TRACK TEAM THAT TOOK SECOND PLACE IN THE REGION 17 MEET YESTERDAY. IT WAS AN EXHAUSTING DAY FOR EVERYONE AND WE APPRECIATE ALL OF YOU WHO WERE ABLE TO HANG IN THERE AND CHEER OUR SSJ ATHLETES. OUR GIRLS TEAM TOOK 4TH PLACE MISSING 3RD BY 3 POINTS.
WE HAVE A GOOD NUMBER OF ATHLETES MOVING ON TO THE AREA E MEET THAT WILL BE HELD ON SUNDAY MAY 17, 2009 AT PLYMOUTH WHITEMARSH HIGH SCHOOL. ANYONE WHO FINISHED IN THE TOP 6 INDIVIDUAL EVENTS AND TOP 4 RELAY TEAMS WILL CONTINUE TO PRACTICE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. WE'RE WAITING ON CONFIRMATION ABOUT THE WESTTOWN TRACK SO WE'LL SEND ANOTHER EMAIL OUT IN REGARDS TO TRACK PRACTICE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.
WE WILL NOT BE PRACTICING TOMORROW, TUESDAY 5/5!!! I BELIEVE THE RAIN WILL STILL BE AROUND.
IT'S ASHAME THAT YESTERDAY WAS AS BAD AS IT WAS BUT WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF CHILDREN BEAT THEIR OWN PERSONAL RECORDS. THAT WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE UNDER THE CONDITIONS. WE HAD A LOT OF CHILDREN JUST MISS BY MOVING ON IN FINISHING 7TH PLACE. GOOD JOB TO ALL! THE MINOR AGE GROUPS HAS TO BE THE TOUGHEST AGE GROUP BECAUSE YOU HAVE SOME 5TH GRADERS, ALL 6TH GRADERS AND SOME 7TH GRADERS. WE HOPE THAT OUR FIRST YEAR MINORS REALIZE THAT NEXT YEAR WILL BE THERE TURN TO BE THE OLDER ONE.
ALSO A REMINDER THAT WE'LL BE SENDING AN EMAIL OUT ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY 5/13 UP AT SSJ. FURTHER DETAILS WILL FOLLOW!
THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND HELP. THERE WERE A LOT OF SCHOOLS WHO HAD SOME NO SHOWS AND REALLY MESSED UP THEIR RELAY TEAMS.
THANKS TO MR. MCCARRON FOR TRANSPORTING OUR TENT. WE DEFINITELY NEEDED THAT BIGGER TENT THIS YEAR. WE WOULD HAVE NEVER FIT UNDER THE SMALL TENT.
WE'LL BE BACK IN TOUCH SOON.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL SSJ TRACK TEAM!!
