Mentor Boy's & Girl's Cross-Country 500 MILE Relay

When: Thursday Aug, 12th

Time: 2pm to 8pm     
                             Parents meeting at 7pm @ pavilion

Where: Garfield Park in Mentor @ Pavilion 

Why: Fundraiser for Runners Pay to Play 

NOTE: Pledge sheets must be turned in by Monday August, 16th in a sealed envelope with your first and last name on it and the exact amount of money inside. Inside should be your pledge sheet and the money you raised. Checks must be made out  to the: MENTOR PACK CLUB

How: Take the pledge sheet around to all your family, friends and neighbors and have them sign up either for a lump sum pledge or a pledge per mile (how many miles you might be running towards the 500 mile team goal). Depending on what kind of shape you are in, you could be running as many as 12 miles. Our goal is to run 500 miles between the boys and girls teams. The coaches will determine how many miles each leg of the relay will run and at what kind of pace. Remember the more money you can raise, the less money you will have to pay out of your own pocket, for Pay to Play.

Miscellaneous: Bring a tent if you want or something comfortable to lay on. Dress for the weather; we will run rain or shine. Bring plenty of water or juices to keep you hydrated, it could be very hot. Also bring food and snacks to keep your energy levels up. We will also try and arrange pool time at the Garfield pool for your breaks. You can also bring games to keep you busy in between runs. If you bring music to play from a boom box, it must be appropriate for everyone.  Finally bring yard tools because we will be cleaning up the course for the upcoming season. That includes everyone from the boys and girls teams. Lets be on our best behavior and get our goal of 500 miles.
