We are so excited that everyone is looking forward to returning to track this season. Based on the overwhelming registration response we have received from returning racers, at this time sign-ups are now closed. Please understand that these limits are in place to ensure the health and safety of all coaches, volunteers, and kids in the track program. Should conditions change, we will look to re-open registration. Thank you for your understanding as we navigate this situation. We will continue to post updates regarding registration, virtual meetings, practice, and health protocols here and on our facebook page. 

Practices will start on April 5th, 2021. Until the track facilities at Morris Hills and Morris Knolls are available to us, we will run track practices at alternate locations in Rockaway Township. Practices will be held Monday, Wednesday and Friday (6:00-7:30 pm). Clinic (8 years and below) will practice on Monday and Wednesday (6:00-7:00 PM).

LAKELAND VOLUNTEERS – RAIN OR SHINE!!
 
 
 
1) 4:30 pm – 9:00 pm – Start/Finish area – this includes t-shirt and fanny pack handout. Park at the Alexander Hamilton School lot which is a short walk from the staging area in the high school parking lot. There is a second lot at the high school near the Alexander Hamilton School that we can use also. This group will include the high school volunteers and will be coordinated by Mr. Higgins, Mrs Standridge and Mrs Adler.
 
2) 6 pm– 9:00 pm – Water Stations – meet near the corner of Mills St and Sussex Turnpike between 5:45 and 6:00 and park on the side streets near that corner. (If you come down Sussex towards Morristown turn right on Mills St and make the first right on Tuxedo and park there. The other option would be to park at the Alexander Hamilton School further down on Mills and walk back up). Coach Pietrewicz will coordinate the water stop volunteers which will be divided up into two groups to man the two water stops, both of which are a short walk away from the parking area at the corner. Two Porto johns will be available for the water stop volunteers in two locations. The Alexander Hamilton parking lot and the little triangle island at the intersection of Cutler, Ralph and Sussex.
 
Water stop locations:
Walker Ave – shortly after the 1 mile mark just before Mills St. This is on the other side (north side) of Sussex Turnpike.
Kenmuir Ave – just off Mills St on the way back around 2.5 miles.
 
We will have pizza and refreshments at the Alexander Hamilton School parking lot
after we have finished. Thanks for volunteering – we will have a lot of fun.

RT Racers:

We hope you are enjoying your summer

This email is from the Lakeland League:

Just a reminder about the volunteer effort for the upcoming Verizon Corporate Classic 5k on 7/19. We are manning the water stop on Mill Street and will be meeting at 6 pm – I will send out more specific details as we get closer. As in past years, we will provide pizza and soft drinks for everyone following the race after we are done with cleanup. We will also have volunteer t-shirts for everyone. Please get back to me with the number of volunteers from each of your teams – it is an excellent opportunity for the kids to get involved and have some fun doing it. 

The other job that we will be doing is handing out t-shirts and fanny packs to the runners – I will be working that venue at the high school beginning at 4:30. I will be using high school volunteers from Randolph along with some of the usual suspects. There will be no bag stuffing this year which makes life a lot easier. 
Just email me if you can help out. I will forward your info to the league.
Thank you
