2016 Charles Pointe - Indian Run Invitational

MEET WEBSITE: http://www.bridgeporttrack.com/hosted-events/charles-pointe-indian-run/

August 27, 2016

The 2016 Charles Pointe - Indian Run Invitational will be hosted by Bridgeport High School at the Bridgeport Recreation Complex located along Rt. 131 in Bridgeport on Saturday August 27 2016.   The newly redesigned one loop course for 2016 is even more spectator friendly and removes the large hill so it will be very fast.  The race will start and finish in the fields across the road from the Rec Complex and will consist of 3.1 miles (5K) of rolling hills and scenic meadows for the HS race.  The Middle School race will be a 3K race.  

Cars will be able to park at the Bridgeport Recreation Complex on a first come first serve basis.  Buses will drop teams at the Complex and will then be parking off-site.  Bus Shuttle Service will be available all day for those that park at Bridgeport High School, Bridgeport Middle School, Johnson Elementary and Wayne Jamison Field.  Tickets will be sold as you board the bus and you will be dropped inside the complex at the top of the hill avoiding long ticket lines and climbing the complex hill.  

Tent City will be on the Multipurpose Field.  Restroom facilities and Concessions will be available adjacent to the Multipurpose Field.  T-shirts will be available for sale on a first come first serve basis.  Spectators will be charged a small entry fee ($5.00).  

The awards ceremonies will be held next to and above the Multipurpose Field near the concession stand.  Awards will consist of first, second and third place team awards and medals for the top 20 in the High School Boys and Girls races and the Middle School Boys and Girls races.  All athletes will be timed.  Between awards ceremonies we hope to have live bands, singers and DJ’s performing all day.

We will be having a new feature at the meet this year.  The “College Coaches Corner” will provide you an opportunity to meet a host of college coaches from across the state and hopefully beyond.  You, your athletes and their parents can talk recruiting, as well as receive information and literature on the various programs, schools, camps, clinics, etc.  Plus it will provide your athletes a chance to seen first hand by these coaches.  This is an opportunity you don’t want to pass up.  So far, we have tentative committments from the following coaches and schools:

Sean Cleary - West Virginia University                            Kaylyn Christopher - Fairmont State University

Nick Bias - University of Charleston                                 Caleb Bowen - Marshall University

Jesse Skiles - West Virginia Wesleyan College               Jason Pyles - Davis & Elkins College

Jesse Weiner - Alderson Broaddus University                 Earl Graves - Alderson Broaddus University

Ricky Moore - Wheeling Jesuit University 

Again this year we will again be holding our Open Cross Country 5K race.  It will be open to coaches, parents and the general public.  The participants will run the same course as the High School athletes.  An entry fee of $10.00 per runner will be charged if pre-registered.  Race Day registration will be $15.00 The race will be limited to the first 200 entries.  There will be no age grouping.  T-Shirts will be available for purchase.  Male and female athletes will run together.  The top 10 male and top 10 female finishers will receive awards.
