Ashland Invitational     

 

On behalf of Ashland Paul Blazer High School, we are extending an invitation for your school to be a part of the 16th annual Ashland Invitational on Tuesday- September 11, 2018. 

 

The course is run entirely on trails and grass and is a combination of rolling hills and flat areas, which should provide for exciting races.  The infamous “HEARTBREAK HILL” is a large part of the course’s popularity. The high school races will be 5000 meters, the junior high/middle school races will be 3000 meters, and the elementary races will be 1200 meters and 1800 meters.  There will be a small admission fee for spectators.  Changing facilities and restrooms will be on site.  There will be a large area for school tents and parking.  In the event of inclement weather, various buildings are available for cover for participants as well as spectators.  Exclusive Ashland Invitational T-shirts will be on sale.  Hot and cold concessions will be available.  The awards’ ceremony will be next to the start/finish area.

 

Entry fees for our meet are $50 per High School Varsity Team,  $35 per Junior High/Middle School Team, $25 per Elementary Team (Boys and Girls are separate).  There is a $10 per runner fee for all other individuals.  There will be a $125 per school maximum fee regardless of the number of teams entered.  Please make checks payable to: Ashland Paul Blazer Cross Country and mail to Phillip Caudill-Head Cross Country Coach, 1600 Blackburn Ave. Ashland, KY 41102.  The deadline for entry applications and fees is September 7, 2018.
