Awards Ceremony Procedures

 

Our traditional extravaganza awards ceremony in the gymnasium has been altered this year due to the Covid 19 crisis. Even though during the regular season, awards ceremonies have not been permitted due to the guidelines set in place, we feel that it is very important to recognize the top 10 individuals, state champion, and state runner-up teams at a state championship event. We can do this in a safe environment as long as people follow the below guidelines.

 

1.      The ceremony will take place at the stadium after the completion of the boys race and results are calculated.

2.      Only teams & fans that have athletes in the top 10 individuals, the state champion or state runner-up team can stay for the awards ceremony. Everybody else go back to their team camp and prepare to leave campus. 

3.      Teams and coaches that are involved will be allowed on the field once results have been calculated, but everyone must wear a mask and also social distance from other teams. (Coaches will need to have masks & warm-ups ready for their boys at the stadium since the awards ceremony will take place very soon after the completion of the boys race).

4.      All spectators of athletes involved in the awards ceremony must be outside the fence in the stands wearing Masks and social distancing as much as possible.  All other fans must leave the stadium and prepare to leave campus.

5.      Coaches and athletes listen for announcement when to come down on the field and get ready for awards ceremony. Otherwise stay outside track fence area. 

 

These are the guidelines set in order for the awards ceremony to take place in a SAFE environment.

 

Hopefully next year we will be able to return to the gymnasium, so everybody can enjoy our traditional extravaganza awards ceremony to showcase the top runners and teams.
