We hope you will join us for one of the premiere meets in the state on our challenging, yet fun, course located on the campus of Sherman Elementary School, home of Grant County Cross Country. The site has served as the host of the 2013, 2015, and 2016 Class A Region 3, Class AA Region 4, and Class AAA Region 5 Cross Country Championships. Though most of the course will remain the same, we ask you to pardon our mess due to construction of a new school district bus garage and join us in September. As always, we look forward to seeing you at the races and best of luck to your school and teams during the upcoming season!
