03/13/18 Update:
- EVERYONE WHO NEEDS A RIDE CAN RIDE THE BUS! But please use the bus as a backup plan :)
- Parental carpool is going to be at the BASEBALL CIRCLE near the track - ALL parents who are driving need to come back there and line up (and thank you SO much! :) - any time between 2:25 pm and before 3:15 pm would be great!
- Here are the options for getting to the track meet in order of preference that will get you to the meet fastest:
- Option 1: If you are a student with a valid driver's license and car (regardless of what event in which you compete), you may drive YOURSELF ONLY
- leave straight from school from the student parking lot
- (do NOT drive to the back of the school to the track),
- do not dilly dally, and
- do NOT take anyone with you
- IF YOU ARE IN ANY FIELD EVENT OR THE 1600, 4x100, 400, or 100, then
- Option 2: If your parent can get you from school before 3:00 pm and get you to JCHS by 3:30 pm, then ride with your parent and ask them to take as many athletes as they can :)
- Option 3: Go to the parental carpool line and get in the first car with open seats to get you to the meet in time for your event
- Option 4: If you have no other way to get there, and all the carpool cars are full, you must be on the 3:30 pm bus (first trip).
- NOTE: If you are NOT in a field event, the 1600, 4x100, 400, or 100 - do NOT get on the bus for the FIRST trip - you need to wait until the second trip!
- IF YOU ARE IN THE HURDLES, 800, 200, 3200 OR 4x400 and NOTHING ELSE, then
- Option 5: if your NORMAL SCHOOL BUS/RIDE HOME will get you home in time for a PARENT to then take you from home to the meet to arrive at least 1 hour before your event, do that!
- Option 6: If your parent can come get you and take you to the meet to get there in time for your later event, then have them come to the baseball circle to pick you up. You cannot be roaming campus or in another area. You must stay together with the other athletes where the bus is going to pick up at the track
- Option 7: If you have no other way to get there, then you must be on the 4:30 pm bus (second trip)
- Option 1: If you are a student with a valid driver's license and car (regardless of what event in which you compete), you may drive YOURSELF ONLY

- CHECK THE INTENDED PARTICIPATION LIST HERE
- HAVE YOU ASKED IF YOUR PARENT CAN DRIVE YOU TO THE MEET? Remember, we only have ONE BUS to get everyone from NHS to Johns Creek, and then only one to get us back. As many parents as can get kids by 2:45 pm from NHS and take them to JCHS, the better. That will be fewer on the bus (which won't leave NHS until 3:30!).
- HAVE YOU ASKED IF YOUR PARENT CAN DRIVE YOU HOME FROM THE MEET? The more parents that can take their athletes home, the fewer we will have on the bus back to NHS and the fewer trips it will have to make.

- Practice will finish at 4:30 pm
- The deadline for Johns Creek HS meet entries has been extended to Monday night. This means you ONLY have Monday practice time to convince coaches to put you into a desired event for Wednesday.
- CHECK THE INTENDED PARTICIPATION LIST HERE and then communicate if you want to be in something different. We may still put you in what the coaches think is best for the overall team results, but we may also be able to place you in something you'd like to try for fun. If you don't say something, we can't do anything about it - communication is key!

- If you are NOT able to attend the meet if entered, you MUST let your event Coach know TODAY BEFORE 2 PM!
- This meet is top 4 per event, BUT - if someone picked cannot make it to the meet, we pick someone else. Be respectful to your teammates - if you can't go, tell us NOW so we can reassign that entry to your teammate instead of wasting it on a scratch!
- Athletes MUST ride buses to the meet and have the option of riding them home if a PARENT is not available at the meet to check them out. Students are NOT allowed to ride home with friends and are REQUIRED to check out with a Coach before leaving the meet (even if they are leaving with a parent).
- Athletes MUST be picked up within 15 minutes of the buses arriving back at school. Athletes are expected to text their rides when we LEAVE Dacula. This is not the coach's responsibility and anyone left after 15 minutes of arrival may be restricted from involvement in future meets.
