Practice with the DDHS Cross Country Team!
The high school cross country team would like to invite middle school students to join them to increase interest in running and fitness. This would be a good opportunity for students who:
• enjoy running
• want to get involved in sports or improve fitness
• prepare for a winter sport
• would benefit from positive role models
The students would practice with the high school team on a daily basis and be invited to come to meets to support the team. If interested, please send an e-mail to cboehm@ddschools.org
