Athletes were issued team uniforms and a jacket on Tuesday, August 26. Remember to wash your uniform and jacket in cold water (no fabric softener) and hang to dry. Please do not put uniforms or jacket in the dryer.
These items are checked out to you and are your responsibility during the season. When we are at meets, please put these items in your bag when you are not using them - do not leave them on the ground. There will be a $100 fee to replace the jacket and a $50 fee per uniform item.

Volunteers Needed
Posted 8/23/25
2:20 p.m. MT
We are in need of volunteers for the Arvada West Durden Invite on Friday, September 19. We host this meet and can’t run it without you! At this time, we only have 5 volunteers – we need around 35. If you are available, please email Della with available times, cell phone number, and t-shirt size at della.moore@jeffco.k12.co.us. If you have a t-shirt from last year, please plan to use that, and let me know that you already have a shirt. All athletes are expected to help with tear-down after the meet is complete. We’ll also need volunteers with trucks to help us take items to Stenger in the morning and back to the school at the conclusion of the meet. Like to ride a bike? We need a lead bike for our races, and a sweeper bike (follow last runner in each race). Let Della know if you can help with these tasks.
