CT Middle School State XC Championship Cancelled
Dear Coach/AD,
After much thought and research, I have regretfully decided to cancel the CT Middle School Cross Country Championship scheduled for November 7. Wickham Park is not allowing any large events this fall. Safety of staff, athletes, coaches, and spectators can not be guaranteed under the pandemic conditions in which we exist. As a retired teacher and coach, I feel for all of you that are going to work in our schools under so much uncertainty and hope that you and your families come out of this healthy and safe.
If there are any of you that would like to try organizing regional meets (recommended by CIAC), and need some advice, feel free to contact me any time.
I look forward to a successful vaccine and a return to a "normal" spring of track and field.
Sincerely,
Mike Bendzinski
