We have 4,432 athletes representing 158 high schools and 69 middle schools from 7 states.

We are very excited about the level of competition and look forward to a beautiful day at Eagle Island!
With large entry numbers comes an equally large number of cars and spectators. Please give your team bus/van enough time to deal with traffic. Advise parents to arrive 45-60min before they would have originally planned. We anticipate 3800 cars entering the park over the two days with a total crowd of 8-9,000 (including athletes).
Please be patient and follow instructions from Park Staff, Parking Staff, Meet Staff, Security and Volunteers.

An event of this size involves many amazing volunteers and staff. Please offer a smile and thank you to all those who are volunteering as well as the Park Staff and parking attendants, it will be greatly appreciated!
