Summer Race Series
 
  

Great 8th season.  See you next June. 

Open to girls going into the 5th through 12th grade for all of Berkshire County. 

 The club will meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6pm and Saturday mornings at 9am throughout the summer.  Except for race days, we meet at the Taconic HS Track.

We will be training to run several area summer races individually and as a team. 

 There are no tryouts or rankings.  The Team Philosophy is for girls to be introduced to proper training and stretching techniques, develop age-appropriate conditioning, and learn to appreciate the joy of running.  Several area coaches have volunteered their time to demonstrate and teach technique in several field events as well.  Last year we received instruction on the long-jump, sprints, shot-put, high-jump, hurdles, and discus. 

 There is no cost to join the team.  Team singlets are $20 and various races may have a fee associated.
