Spikes:  Only 9 mm pyramid spikes are allowed.

Check-In:  Check-in is required of all athletes.  Athletes that do not check in will not be allowed to compete.    All competitors competing in a field event must first check in at the field Bull Pen, and then with the field event judge, before being allowed to compete.  If a competitor in a field event needs to be excused to compete in a running event, permission from the field event judge must be obtained.  The competitor shall then have 15 minutes to return to the field event.  The games committee strongly recommends that the athlete competing in the conflicting running and field events use a proxy to check in at the running Bull Pen to obtain hip numbers.  When it is time to run, permission from the field event judge is needed to leave the field event competition and compete in their running event. 

Spectator Admission:  Admission for all spectators is free.

Warm-up - The grass field to the north of the track is available for warm-up.  There will be no warm-up on the track.
