proper conduct as we are guests of the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitors
Bureau and we do not want to lose our privilege to enjoy this beautiful new track.

MEET SCHEDULE
The meet schedule below is a three day meet based on getting full
fields per event per gender per division. While we anticipate getting full fields
because this is a first time event for the West Coast if we do not get full
fields by December 1st we will adjust the schedule and reduce the
meet to two days. The order of events will remain the same regardless of if the
meet is three days or two.
The meet will be conducted on a rolling schedule which is below.
It is up to each athlete to know when their event is taking place. The clerk in
Hall 4 will have a sound system and will call for each group to report for
hipping. If you miss your event there will not be another opportunity to
compete in that event. Field event athletes also need to report to the clerk
and be escorted onto the field for their event. Field event athletes need to
report to the clerk at least 30 minutes before their event.
