A great meet to kick off the season.  Held at deKoeveand Park in Southwest Denver;  this meet typically has twenty-five teams and the course is very interesting with two major creek crossings.  It's a little bit of a shock for first time cross country runners but a meet that the veterans have grown to love.

The meet begins at 4:00 with the Freshman/Sophomore races (boys run at 4:00, the girls at 4:10).  We then move on to the varsity races around 4:50 (boys) and 5:20 (girls) and then finally on to the open races at 6:00 (boys) and 6:10 (girls.  The boys varsity race should also be intriguing as it's their first appearance since their third place finish at the State Championships last October.  The Cougars should also be pretty competitive Freshman/Sophomore races as we have plenty of young talent . 

Who:          All members of the cross country team who have nine practices by September 3rd.

Where:       DeKoevand Park at University and Arapahoe Avenues (click here for the map)

Our Camp:  We typically camp about 100 meters northwest of the finish line or 80 meters north of the pavilions, but may have to search for a different area if we arrive late.
