We are happy to announce that the team will be hosting a 2012 XC Season Kickoff Cookout and Picnic on Tuesday August 28 from 4 - 7 pm at Mount Vernon Park Pool and Tennis Club, 8042 Fairfax Rd., Alexandria VA 22308. This event will be a great way for families to meet and for the team to enjoy a social event before the PR Relays, the first meet of the season on Thursday August 30. Directions are at the end of this post.
There is a change in information regarding admission fees for this event. While the team had hoped to pick up the costs for athletes and one family member, because of liability issues we cannot have team funds pay for admission. Sorry about any confusion. The admission fee is $3 per person, and it will be collected at the door.
We will be grilling hamburgers and hot dogs, and ask that you sign up here to contribute to the event by either volunteering to set up, break down, and serve during the party, or for those who could bring a salad, dessert or other items. We will break down the volunteer times into manageable shifts, so everyone will have a chance to relax and enjoy the event.
The party starts at 4, cooking will begin at 5, and we will serve the food at 5:30 pm.
Click here to RSVP with the number of people that you intend to bring. Please RSVP - or your name won't be on the list at the entrance to the park!
Mt. Vernon Park is a neighborhood pool and tennis club with 10 acres of grounds, a picnic area, basketball, volleyball and tennis, as well as two pools and a pond. Please bring your bathing suit if you would like to swim. There are changing areas and showers at the park. The party will go on rain or shine, we have reserved use of the pavilion on the grounds.
We hope you can join the team for this fun event. Directions from GW Parkway or Fort Hunt Rd.: Take Wellington Rd. west to Lafayette.
