Athletes need to be dropped off at Lake Travis High School at 7:15 a.m. If parents are dropping off their kids, and they don't want to stay and watch, they need to park in the visitor parking lot because Cavalier Drive will be blocked off for the race. However, they need to be there when the race is over, so their child can walk over from the track to their vehicle to go home immediately afterwards. Below is the flyer with the information for the meet.
