The Start of the Week

Today Benjamin had his first day of try-outs for cross country.  This is only the third year the school has had a team. During these last two years, there was no try-outs. Any one who wanted to join, did.  But there were a few problems....lots of people bought a shirt, showed up for practice, but did NOT show up for a meet. I think the sponsor teachers (both of the female PE teachers) were tired of that! Ben said they announced that they would take 25 students. He thought about 50 were there. He felt like he had the second fastest time for his grade.  We'll see how it goes the rest of the week....some may get faster the week goes on.
