    *FUNDRAISING we are hoping to raise $5000 to purchase a timing system.  We are asking for voluntary team donations of $125--checks payable to the TRUCKEE HIGH SCHOOL. Put "track" on memo line. If you are interested in helping organize a fundraiser or have an idea, please contact me below.  Any help with fundraising is greatly appreciated!

    *You will need good running shoes, and you can purchase track spikes if you want.  Reno Running Company gives a 10% discount to THS athletes.  Ask a coach what the best spike would be for your event before you purchase spikes since there are different types.

    *Last, pre season training including strength conditioning, running, and cross training is critical to your  success this season.  Don’t come to the first day of practice and regret you’re not in shape.
