District 833 cross-country meet postponed

Talk about it

Due to early season snows and unexpectedly low temperatures, the annual District 833 Cross-Country Meet for grades 3-6, originally scheduled to be hosted at Bailey Elementary School in Woodbury on Tuesday Oct. 13, has been postponed a week until Oct. 22.

Other than the postponement, the event's schedule remains unchanged, as follows:

Children in grades 3-4 will run together starting at 4:15 p.m. on the 1 1/2-mile course at Bailey and grades 5-6 will run at 4:45 p.m.

Check-in begins at 3:40 p.m. and closes at 4:10 p.m. for all grades. There will be participation ribbons given to all runners, and the top ten finishers in each grade level for both boys and girls will receive a special ribbon.

Cost for the event is two dollars (cash preferred) to cover the cost of ribbons and plaques.

Children should see their physical education teacher for a permission slip or contact Jim Scott at Bailey (651) 768-4895.
