Parents and Coaches,

One of the goals of the Middle School Athletic Association is to help Track and Cross Country Athletes get the same recognition as the other sports get. You can help us accomplish that! Once your team or athlete has entered the State Meet please take some time to send a picture and short write up to your local Newspaper to announce that they will be participating in this years event.

Please help us to promote the state meet by printing out a few flyers to post or hand out at your meets or to your teams.

Thanks for help, we appreciate it!
