The Floor is Yours

I spoke a little bit about the Bucks County Speedsters Blue & Orange Track & Field Day in the Speedster Quarterly, and I thought I would do something different this year.  I thought instead of me writing a bias recap on an event that I introduced to all of you; I thought I would open it up to all of you.  We all know that I enjoyed the day and was proud of all of you for not only competing, but for contributing with bringing stuff that we needed and for also cheering each other on no matter what color the clothing.  The only thing I would like to add is that Phil had the funniest moment of all, when he approached me about the starting pistol not firing.  I took one look at the gun and said to Phil “I take it you don’t own a gun?”  He replied with a simple no.  I shook my head and said Phil you have the blanks loaded on the wrong side.  We didn’t have any misfires so Phil must have figured out how to load the blanks.

I would love to hear about your track meet experiences, what made you laugh, what was your favorite part of the day, what you didn’t like, what should change.  I’m curious to know what volunteers and athletes alike thought and experienced.  The floor is yours.  You can either respond to this email/face book post or comment on the bottom of the actual blog post.
