Here is the information you need to know to register for the race on Saturday as well as any future races. You need to go to the NLAA cross country series website using the following link:
https://www.nlaa.ca/xcseries/index.php
This website will answer some of the questions you and your family may have and it contains the link to register for the race. If you go down to the section on Registration and Fees, you can click on the link there for “Online Registration & Payment”. Here you will enter the information about yourself to register for the race. We are a NLAA affiliated school and have paid our membership fee for the year, so please remember to enter the code MDJH to get the discount. The race will then cost only $5.00 to complete the registration.
Below is also a link for race times as well as a course map. Grade 7s race at 11:00, Grades 8 and 9 race at 11:15. They recommend arriving 45 minutes to an hour before your race to get your race bib number, which must be worn, and to get warmed up and ready to run.
