Hello Wayzata families!
We hope your athletes are excited for the school year to start. We are back with a week that is super short and sweet! Please note that there are no cross country meets this week—just practice. Our next meet will be on Saturday, September 18 in Eden Prairie. We will continue to meet at Central after school from 4:10-5:30. We will still meet in the courtyard by the backdoors and across from the softball fields.
Important reminders:
Masks are required in any Wayzata building at all times.
Students will have access to locker rooms and/or restrooms to change.
Make sure your athlete brings a snack and water bottle to practice—it is a long school day!
As always, please let us know if you have any questions! We are looking forward to a great first week back at school!
