ALL CLUB MEMBERS WHO PLAN TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS MEET MUST RETURN THE ENTRY FORM/WAIVER FORM BY SUNDAY, FEB.16.
Though the HJ is not listed as an event, our Club will run the HJ that day.
=============================================
Our next meet after the vacation week will be the major meet of the season - the Needham Youth Classic on March 1.
Members will need to register for this meet on their own, but should affiliate with the Waltham Track Club when they do so, since this is a team scoring event.
The reason members need to register own their own is due to the meet's entry fee policy - if the meet were to be cancelled due to weather, they do not reimburse any entry fees - instead, they put fees aside for future Needham TC events that a member may choose to do. This complicates the Club's involvement because we would need to do book keeping on thousands of dollars worth of future entry fees. It is much easier for each member to keep tract of any fees they incur.
Members should enter for this meet soon, as fees increase periodically. Entering early also ensures that you will get a meet t-shirt.
