4) Additional "Know Before You Go" Items:
1. Only light snacks are provided by the Kids on Track Program, so please plan accordingly by either bringing money to purchase food or bringing a bagged lunch.
2. Please check the weather on the date of your event to ensure proper attire is worn to the track. If it is expected to rain, plan accordingly with rain attire, hooded jackets, and umbrellas. If it is expected to be warm, plan to dress for warmth, as this is an outdoor event. If needed, bring a light jacket if it gets cooler.
3. This is a walking event, so please wear shoes you feel comfortable walking and standing in for the duration of the event.
4. Consider bringing water, as there will be a lot of time spent walking and outdoors.
