Hello Parents,
Welcome to the brave new world of MVXC 2012…we have a record number of kids sign up, and that also means that we are going to have a new challenge of getting our team to our competitions, especially the five weekday meets whjere our athletes are running.
I know it is hard for many families to take an afternoon to drive 4 or 5 kids to a competition, but please do this! Even though they won’t say this to you, your kids want you there, and they will appreciate it, and they will remember 35 years later whether their parents came to their XC meets (I know this, personally). We communicate a lot by being there for our children.
Also…Veena and Abhijit are taking on a huge task, and we all help them a lot by replying to their emails immediately as well as generously…we have our first meet already this Saturday, but also committing now to drive to 2, 3 or all 5 of the weekday meets will REALLY reduce the stress on our planners…I can’t tell them how much I appreciate the parents that volunteer so generously of their time to make the team so successful, happy and complete.
Monta Vista XC is truly a family, a village, and the only reason it is so wonderful is because everyone–athletes and parents–do their best to make everything work so well.
Thank you in advance for all your support!
Coaches Kirk, Jodi, Matt and Irina
