Youth and entourage converge at track

Wow, another youth track meet in the books. Saturday, June 6 was the annual Weiser Recreation track meet. This year, the new high school track was used and what a beautiful facility it is. Of particular interest is the white sand in the pits. The kids wanted to play in that more than they wanted to compete! 

 There were 85 participants, twice that in parent/family support and about a dozen volunteers who showed up to witness pure joy, a few tears or melt downs and just a lot of fun. 

 When you have two year olds who take a minute to run a 100 meters being timed by WHS’s fastest 100 meter runner in Jackson Laird who runs a sub 11 seconds, it is a sight to behold. Former athletes helped to time, measure and encourage these youngsters. Older athletes brought their own families to compete. Families even competed in the final event, the 4x100 meter relay. From the young to the not so old (as in the relay), fun was had by all. 

 Thank you all for a wonderful day. On a side note, this reporter’s own great-granddaughter Laila was brought down by her Grammie, my daughter Tinitia, to compete for Nana. Said Grammie and Nana ran together in the relay as well. The following are the results.
