Coaches,

The Chancellor High Cross Country Team and Saucony would like to invite you and your team to participate in the 28th Annual Cross Country Invitational on Saturday, September 3, 2016. We are switching weekends with the Great Meadow Invitational this year only. The Great Meadow Invitational is now on 27 August 2016.

The Invitational will be held on a beautiful grass, gravel and trail course at Loriella Park in Spotsylvania, VA. For the safety of the runners, some of the trails have been covered with very fine stone dust provided by and there will be mile markers every mile. We hope that you have a great summer and look forward to seeing you this fall.

Sincerely,
