We especially feel sad for our Seniors as they finish their high school experience in such an unfortunate manner. Here is the link to CHSAA's statement :https://chsaanow.com/2020-04-21/spring-2020-season-cancelled-due-to-on-going-covid-19-pandemic/
Track Refunds - Douglas County School district has decided that participation fees from the district will be refunded. All refunds have been applied to the original credit card payment. The district participation fee is the $185 that is paid when you register for a sport. We do have a few families that will receive refunds via check as payment from their original account changed. Ms Rommel has contacted those parents.
Returning Uniforms: When the school district allows us back on campus, we will set up a schedule for you to return your uniform. For now, please keep them in a place where you can easily find them as we will plan on doing this in one shot.
Denver Athletic/Spiritwear Orders: For those that ordered track gear for the season from Denver Athletic, I am coordinating with them on a time to pick up those orders. Please check our website periodically for more info. As stated in an earlier posting, Ms Beckham has Spiritwear orders at her home. Please text Wes or Sam Beckham, or Coach Davies, and we will help you connect with her if you still need to pick up your order.
Virtual Hangouts: Each Sunday at 3pm, I have been meeting with our Seniors on the Distance Team via google hangouts, to check in and share info. Any Senior not on the distance squad is more than welcome to join us! If you would like to join, email or text Coach Davies, and I will email you an Invite.
Optional Workouts During Spring: coaches will still be posting workouts on their blogs or this site if you wish to keep training.
Summer XC Training: At this time we are still on hold in regards to when we can officially start Summer Camp Training. As we get into May, I will have more information to pass along to athletes and families. Below are some very tentative plans for Summer XC:
Start Date - June 8th is our target date. Once again, that will be a decision that comes for the district leadership, and is obviously based on the health and welfare of everyone. Until we have approval, please follow the guidelines of social distancing as they are updated when you train.
Summer Camp XC Registration - As soon as we get school district approval, we will post summer camp registration info on this and the RCHS athletic websites. We will know more in May.
Stay in Shape - Do your best to follow the workouts on Coach Davies Blog. It's very possible we may not be able to meet as a team on June 8th. Please be prepared for this. If that is our situation, the coaching staff will provide workouts for everyone to follow so that you can be ready for the fall season. Coaching the team may have to take place remotely. If this is the case, every member of the TEAM will still receive a summer training schedule to follow. We will be looking into using the FInal Surge training app that we have used in the past, or a comparable system for you and the coaches, to use to track your training.
Tentative 2020 XC Schedule: We are working on our schedule and it will be up this week. Meets confirmed so far: RCHS Runners Roost 9/19, Vista 2 Mile 8/28, Arapahoe 9/4, Liberty Bell 9/12, Pat Amato 10/8, State 10/31. Tentative League: 10/14, Regional 10/22
Stay Safe, Stay Strong Jags!!
