not

it's
raining
at
home.
Do
not
drop

a
canceled
practice,
please
stick
around

our
urgent
alert
system,
in
the
event

Distance
Practice
On Mondays
and
Thursdays
until we
reach day
lights
saving time,
the Approved
Distance
kids will
meet at
Central park
next to the
basketball
courts.
(Note this
applies to
the Approved
Distance
athletes
that have
done the
mile test,
or are
returning
distance
track
athletes).
If you have
children
that have to
be dropped
at both the
track and
the park,
drop at the
track first
at 5:45, and
then at the
park, do not
leave
children
unattended!
please make
sure there
is a coach
present
before you
leave. Pick
up at the
park first
and then the
track.
Until
daylight
savings
begins, the
Distance
kids will be
training in
the park. It
is just down
the street
from the
high school
and a safe
place to
train.

Jelly
Beans & Jolly
Ranchers
Parents we ask that you bring 2 bags of jelly beans or Jolly Ranchers.
At the end of each practice we give the kids a few jelly beans as a treat. For the kids with braces, we give them a Jolly Rancher. The kids must be heading out the gate in order to get them.

Urgent Alert
Message System
If you would like to join our Urgent Alert Text System, on your cell phone text the word "STORMTF" to 41411 and you should be greeted with a welcome message, we use this system rarely for very important urgent alerts, for example, We cancel practice early due to unforeseen circumstances
It's been brought to my attention that if your using T-Mobile, you may have to contact them to have Text Message Blocking shut off while you enroll. I believe once your enrolled you can turn it back on.
Please be sure to check with your cell phone provider if you are having trouble connecting to our urgent alert text system.
We will try to help you, but in most cases if you get an error trying to connect, I suggest you contact your customer service and see if there is some type of blocking on your phone preventing signing up for these types of text systems, I've been told that some games use text systems to bill your phone, our system will not bill your phone, we are paying for it.
________________________________________
Alternatively: If you use Twitter, you can join our twitter feed. We also tweet all of our urgent text alerts.
To sign up for twitter alerts,
1) text "follow @stormtrackclub" to 40404
2) You should get confirmation that you are following us
3) Urgent text alerts will be texted to you the same as if you joined the alert system.
I believe this will work even if you don't have a twitter account.
We do tweet out a link to our newsletter each week also, so you will get more information from us via twitter than our Urgent Alert Text System.
