CONCESSIONS: Apr 19 MS Track Meet Rescheduled for May 1

FYI- "the JH track meet postponed last Thursday is going to be made up next Tuesday May 1st." ~John "Ernie" Klien, Athletic Director

Therefore...If you were scheduled to work the April 19th Track Meet- we will need you to work May 1. Please talk to your employers or other coaches to make arrangements, or please find someone who can work for you. Thank You.

Therefore... this will preempt our Tryout Practice on May 1. It may be rescheduled for Thurs Apr 27 to be able to fit it in between all the track meets going on. I'd have it on May 2, but we have an early out and therefore probably a teacher in-service.
