Woodbridge XC Invitational
Posted on September 15, 2019 - Filed Under New items | Leave a Comment
Dear Parents and Athletes,
Saturday our team competes in the exciting Woodbridge Invitational at the Silver Lakes Sports Complex in Norco. The address is 5555 Hamner Avenue, Norco CA.92880. Athletes should meet the buses in the student parking lot on Diamond at 12:45 PM. The buses will return after the last race at 8:06 PM. Again, we ask that parents be in the parking lot ready to pick up when the buses arrive back at Redondo. The coaches were so appreciative of this effort at the last meet!!
Students should come to the meet dressed in their uniforms and warmups. Please clearly mark all items with names. Make sure they have plenty of water/Gatorade as it will be warm during the afternoon hours. Make sure everyone eats a healthy hearty breakfast, a light lunch and brings healthy snacks. You may want to send additional money since there will be T-shirts for sale and food trucks where athletes can purchase food AFTER their race.
Below is the website with all pertinent information concerning the meet including location, directions, schedule and parking information. Plan extra arrival time as parking could be a long walk and traffic to Norco may be heavy. They have asked us to emphasis that NO DOGS will be allowed anywhere in the race complex.
Our team will be competing in the Gold Division on Saturday.
Woodbridge Meet Schedule 9/21/19
We appreciate all the support of parents at the last meet and hope to see you all at the Woodbridge Invitational cheering on our team. We ask though that parents do not hang out near or in the team tent. Also, we would appreciate it if parents wait to speak to their athletes after the coaches have met with them and they have completed their required warm down after the race. Thank you very much for your understanding on this.
Thanks again for the incredible support of our team and program and please direct any questions to my email below.

Parent Booster Meeting – Tuesday Night!
Posted on September 2, 2019 - Filed Under New items | Leave a Comment
Good Morning, hope everyone is enjoying your 3-day weekend! What an exciting event this past Thursday at Entradero Park. We can all see how hard our student athletes have trained. Thank you to the parents who have volunteered their time to make sure the event ran smoothly.
REMINDER: September 3rd meeting 7pm. The meeting room is behind the work out room left of the visitor bleachers.
Topics of discussion, fundraisers, team bonding. There will be Redondo COWBELLS for sale!
Parents of athletes going to Portland please stay after to discuss details.
Upcoming Events/Fundraisers
Posted on August 30, 2019 - Filed Under New items | Leave a Comment
Thank you, Coach Bob and Coach Sal, as well as Special Assistant (for life) Carlos for pulling together a fantastic dual-meet in Entradero!
The results will be posted soon on our Website http://runruhs.com/meet-results/ And of course, thank you to all the volunteers who made the event go smoothly and safely. And lastly, with the generous financial support of our families who donated to the Booster Club, we were able to invite the athletes to Taco Dinner. You invested well!
Tidbit: A couple living across the street from Entradero Park saw the kids run and therefore, went into their yard to pick a huge bag of peaches. Then the not-so-young people carried it over to the field. The husband actually used to be a runner and was still wearing his estimated 1960s running shorts.
Enough celebrations as here comes your list of important events.
August 31 and September 2: Practice is on Saturday at 8 am at Golden Gove and Monday at 8 am at the school track.
September 3 at 7 pm: Please attend the parent meeting on Tuesday. The meeting is being held in a room underneath the bleachers – the ones that are in the middle of the two fields. Please bring questions you might have and cash because you can pick up your tickets for the Comedy Club (see below).
September 8 at 1:45 pm: The summer is not yet over. Come out stand-up paddleboarding. The local Olympus Board Shop on Torrance Blvd. generously supports a Fundraiser for the Team. Included are a lesson, board, paddle, life vest, and huge fun. Bring friends and family. If your athlete is coming on his/her own, make sure to sign the waiver on Tuesday. To reserve your board, please go to https://www.facebook.com/events/2912459165437572 (all students are $30 regardless of age). This is not a school-sponsored event and you are out there at your own risk. Any participant will get wet. Sunscreen, the cheapest sunglasses you have, and a water squirter from the Dollar Tree are highly recommended.
September 11 at 8 pm: Come join us at the Hermosa Comedy Club. Wear red so we can find the Redondo parents. No children will be admitted! Please purchase your tickets on Tuesday at the parent meeting. What would make this process a lot less painful is if you bring the exact cash (20$ per ticket) and email ahead of time. This is another fundraiser where we have to track the ticket numbers. In your email, please indicate if you are sponsoring a particular athlete for the Portland trip or the team in general.
Have a great Labor Day Weekend!
