Glenbard East High School

Welcome to the first meet of the season!
It almost rained today, but thankfully it stayed dry.  The chilly weather required spectators to use several layers of clothes to stay warm.  But aside from those minor details, it was a great day for a meet.  My apologies to the students who didn't get their events recorded on film.  At one point there were four events going on at the same time, making it impossible for the photographer to be present.  Hopefully we'll do a better job the next time around.  Mr. Goffron gets the prize for being photographed the most! 
Enjoy the pictures below of the day with our Track and Field Team.
