Hi All,

 Below you will find an email I received from Tyde with City Meet Information. I will go pick up the parking passes on Wednesday and can hand them out on Thursday at practice or we can arrange another way for you to pick them up. (Just email or text me 832-423-7614)

We will need one back up timer for the morning session…..any takers!?!

I will send more info as soon as I get it. Please don’t hesitate to ask me any questions.

Thank you,

Pam
