TEAM ENTRANCE AND BUS PARKING:         

Participating schools can begin arriving at 2:00 PM – do not arrive any earlier than this time.  Please do not use the Main Entrance of the building.  All teams will need to enter the building via the Faculty Doors (“T” Doors) on the West Side of the School (near the Tennis Courts) and report directly to the Auditorium (adjacent to Faculty Doors) as school is still in session.  There will be restrooms available near the Auditorium area.  Students will not be allowed in other areas of the building until school is dismissed.

After students are dropped off, buses/vans/etc need to leave the parking lots until 3:45 PM to avoid any congestion when school is dismissed at 3:10 PM (a good place to wait would be the overflow parking lot West of the WHS Tennis Courts).  When buses/vans return they can park in the Faculty Parking Lot (West Lot) near the FB Field/Tennis Courts. 

ROOM USE:

When using rooms, please treat the rooms with respect and stay away from using teacher desks, smart boards, white boards, and any items not designated for use.

CONCESSIONS:

            Concessions will be available in the WHS Commons area. 

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have additional questions or concerns. Otherwise, we will see you soon!

Sincerely,

Angelica Mercado-Ford + Coaches
