Team Apparel
With the race season upon us this is a good time to get team apparel to represent Mountain View at competitions. At a minimum I would like to have every athlete on our team own a 2016 t-shirt that they can wear to races - if money is an issue let me know and we will make sure you're covered. The following items are available for purchase by athletes and parents:
Boys Brooks Grey 1/2 Zip Long Sleeve Shirts - $30 (Athletes Only - Currently no Small or Medium)
Girls Brooks Grey Hoody Long Sleeve Shirts - $30 (Athletes Only)
Brooks Red 1/2 Zip Long Sleeve Shirts - $40 (Parents)
Headsweats Trucker Hats - $25
2016 Team T-Shirts - $5 for athletes, $15 for parents.
If you are interested in purchasing any items please bring cash or a check made payable to 'Mountain View Cross Country' to practice this week. I will have all team apparel with me at practice the entire week.
Pasta Feed
The pre-Mountain View XC Runoff team pasta feed will be at the Katz house at 5:30 pm on Thursday (practice is at 4:30 to accommodate the pasta feed). Their address is 2927 NE Yellow Ribbon Drive. Please bring something to share with the team:
Freshmen - Bread
Sophomores - Salad
Juniors - Drinks
Seniors - Desert
Team Uniforms
If you still need a uniform let me know and we will find a time after one of our practices this week to grab you one. Please remember that uniforms are team property and that fines will be assessed for damaged or lost uniforms. We have brand new jerseys and shorts on order that will be given out after our race in Seaside. These are extremely expensive uniforms and it is your individual responsibility to take care of them. When washing uniforms please do not place any items in a dryer. All items should be hung to dry to extend their life.

Footzone Spike Night
Footzone has their final spike night on Sat, Sept 3rd. On this day all high school athletes can get 20% off all shoes and apparel (All Day Long). High School athletes are also eligible for a 10% discount throughout the year.
I previously mentioned Fleet Feet offers a free pair of spikes with the purchase of trainers for high school athletes - apparently this is only valid on certain dates and I haven't been made aware of when these are. The Nike Outlet and Dicks Sporting goods are a couple other good options for reasonably priced running shoes. If buying shoes is an issue for you let us know. It is a priority for us that all team athletes have a quality pair of running shoes that are in good shape so we will help as much as possible.
