WARREN STAUFFER INVITATIONAL

2008

Saturday, October 4th  

Hollydale park

Dear Coaches,

 

Another cross-country season will soon be upon us, and we are hoping that you will make our meet a part of your 2008 schedule. 

As you may already know, our meet has turned into a very successful and well organized morning of racing.  If you are unfamiliar

with our event, know that we usually feature a mix of high caliber athletes, great  DJ music,  lots of awards, and probably the

best concession stand this side of the Rockies.  Our meet is very fun and rewarding for all.  Our goal has always been to

create an event for every type of runner and to medal  as many of them as possible.  Feel free to contact me at home or send

me an email if you need more detailed information.  We think you’ll enjoy our meet.

 

Sincerely,   Jay Waldron    (562) 439-2777                         Registration: Nadia Roldan  Email: nadluvsart@aol.com  (562) 708-3273
