Dear Cross Country Coach,
The Cerritos Cross Country team is excited to announce its third annual Great Cow Run at Cerritos Park (Formerly Cerritos Regional Park) on SEPTEMBER 12, 2009 after a revival last season! After last year's successful high school invitational and memorial run, we have decided to take on the venture again in 2009. Our vision for this meet is to provide your athletes with a great experience on a course that can provide for a great experience for the experienced and novice athletes. The course that hopes to provide a view of the entire stretch of the park and its sports complex, while also producing some fast times.
We are currently in the process of designing our T-shirts for the meet along with the medals, which will be given out to the top finishers in each race! We plan on distributing at least forty medals in each race, however, similar to last year, will increase the amount of medals depending on the number of entrants. Team awards will also be given out in each division. Our goal is to reward as many athletes as possible for the excellent effort, which we successful did last year! In addition, the top three athletes in each race will receive a small additional award a cow bell!
The meet will also allow for your teams to run as a Varsity, Junior Varsity Sophomore or Freshman team, in order to keep the experienced, less experienced, and novice athletes together to provided a great environment for competition. (Additional races may be added if necessary to maintain a good environment for all participants!) A new Hy-tek 2.0 system will be used to ensure that the results are quick and accurate and the chute will be extended to avoid any issues similar to last year.
Our goal is produce a meet that is low-key, efficient, well run, organized, and hospitable at the same time without it, it wouldn't be a Cerritos Cross Country event! We hope that we can help give you this experience during the first week of the season this year, we welcome experienced and novice along to join us at this wonderful event!
