Riverside MS track athletes will be leaving in the morning at 8:30 from the East campus new gym parking lot. Please make sure that they have plenty of clothing for the morning as it will be chilly. They will also need to bring their own food and drink/water container for the day. A concession stand will be provided, but it will be a long day. Field events will start at 10 with the 2 mile beginning at 11:30 and the rest of the running at 12. We will have all athletes contact their pickup transportation as we leave Highland with stops in Wathena and Elwood.

Riverside HS SADD organization was excited to welcome Ms. Kansas, Annika Wooton to our campuses to speak to the K-6 grade students. Ms. Kansas encouraged the students to never give up on their dreams and shared her platform of car safety (always wear your seatbelt correctly) during her 50 minute presentation to the students at both campuses. In addition to her presentation, students were able to ask her questions, take pictures, and watch as she performed her talents of speed painting and singing. We were very happy to have her in our schools and thank the Kansas Traffic Safety Resource Office for sponsoring her visit.
A few key points for the RMS track meet on April 1, 2021 at Doniphan West.
1) There are no bleachers at the track yet. Please advise your patrons to bring a chair and/or blanket.
2) We have been asked to stay off the infield of the track as they are trying to grow a stand of grass for the upcoming soccer games. There will be an area for teams to warm up. This will be discussed at the coach's meeting.
3) There is no electricity at the track yet. Please plan accordingly.
4) We will have a concessions stand. More information to follow regarding a menu.
5) The discus area was not built correctly and is too close to the track. We plan to start the discus immediately following the coach's meeting to get in as many throwers as we can before starting the 3200 m.
6) We will not give medals on the day of the meet. We will mail or deliver them at a later date.
7) We recommend that visitors wear masks and social distance. We ask that patrons stay 6 feet away from the throwing events. Parents are not allowed around the track area once the running events begin.
8) The teams should set up camp on the west side of the track and social distance. There are port-a-potties available on the west side and the east side of the track, as well as the parking lot area.
9) The coach's meeting will be in the HCC Wellness Center at 9:00 a.m. Please enter through the west doors of the facility (doors closet to the track area).
RMS track practice Friday and Monday will be held at the West campus track with the finish time around 5:20. Please pick them up by the playground entrance.
