"Many of you are aware of the tornado that occurred in Jefferson City last night. The outcome of this storm has resulted in this weekend's MSHSAA State Track and Field Chamionships for classes 3, 4, and 5 to be moved to new locations."
The new locations are:
Class 3 at Mizzou Track/Field Complex
Class 4 @ Washington High School
Class 5 # Battle High School
This will not be a Saturday only event at each of the three sites.
"As you can imagine the MSHSAA is in an urgent need for assistance at each of three sites to assist with field events. We are reaching out to coaches from Class 1 and 2 to consider volunteering to assist with working a field event at one of the three sites to allow us to have knowledgeable individuals assisting with the field events. Each field event will have a MSHSAA Track/Field Official; however, we need volunteers to assist the official with working the event."
Contact MSHSAA if you can volunteer.
Our Dexter Bearcats will be attending the State Track Meet. Coach Waldner is keeping the ShowMe Times up-to-date as to the details as they will be forthcoming.
