3. What is the Running Club? At Beningnus, we are proud to offer a running club for all students. Our purpose is to have the students develop a life long love of exercise and healthy habits. In order to maintain our club each runner will be required to abide by the following policies and procedures.

4. What to wear? Appropriate running attire is required at all meetings. Dress for the weather. We will be outside as much as possible. We will not be changing clothes afterwards due to the large number of participants. So, plan on wearing what you wear to Running Club to school that day. Thanks for your help with this.

5. ATTENDANCE: MEMBERSHIP IN THE RUNNING CLUB REQUIRES A YEAR LONG COMMITMENT WHICH INCLUDES REGULAR ATTENDANCE AT ALL PRACTICES! COMMITMENT RESPONSIBILITY DEDICATION HARD WORK PUNCTUALITY All of these character traits are formed because of attendance!

6. We will take attendance every Friday! Doors open at 7:00 AM Doors close at 7:10 AM So make sure you are on time!!!! If you know that your child will be absent, then just send me an email and I will make note of that! If you have more than 3 absences then you could be dismissed from the club. If you have 3 tardies, you could be dismissed from the club. ATTENDANCE COUNTS!
