Please feel free to bring friends and family to the Pasta Party who are interested in volunteering to help us with our home meet on April 24, 2010. No experience is necessary. We will teach you everything you need to know at the Pasta Party, to help out as a timer (16 timers needed), hurdle crew (12 people needed), and/or a score keeper (10 score keepers needed). We need as many volunteers as possible to make this meet a success. Please email Jongordon9@aol.com in advance, if you can help out with our home meet. Thanks.
At the conclusion of the Pasta Party, Northside parents and volunteers will meet with Northside Head Coach Jon Gordon for meet assignments, training, and equipment distribution (stop watches). Eric Nelson Track & Field Classic T-shirts will be given to all volunteers (while supplies last). THANKS.
