The 2013 Flyers track & field season has begun!  If you're ready to join for the summer, here's what to do.  If you're not sure yet, then we invite you to attend a few practices first (but please bring a completed information/waiver form with you).  If you have any questions about the Flyers, please feel free to ask any of our Coaches & Volunteers.  We look forward to seeing you at practice!

Flyers uniform coordinator Nabrina Wiedemeier will not be at practice this week (Monday 5/20, Wednesday 5/22, and Thursday 5/23).

Need shoes?  Try the Flyers shoe exchange program, where club members can get new and used track and field event shoes at reduced prices.  For more information or to buy a pair, contact Nabrina Wiedemeier.  Used shoes in good condition can also be donated to help raise money for the club.  Also, Peak Performance offers a 15% shoe discount to Flyer members at their 78th & Cass location.  Just mention that you're a member of the Flyers to receive the discount.

Got this message recently from a former Flyer:
Hello Flyer family!  If you don't know me, my name is Tyler Pooschke I was part of the Flyers from 2007-2009.  I was diagnosed with cancer in October of 2009 and went through treatment.  I am now going to school at Doane College and I am the head of a nationally recognized Relay For Life event here.  If you are interested in donating you can go here.  Thanks!
