First day of practice
So......In addittion to my seven returning vaulters I had 18 newbies I could almost field a whole track team with just pole vaulters.

I've had up to 30 people on sundays in my backyard. I'm running 2 pits, perpendicular to eachother, and basically playing traffic cop - one side goes, then the other, back and forth. It's crazy. Never have that many at once, and try to schedule no more than 5 at a time on one runway, but people show up late, show up early, show up unannounced, etc. It's crazy! My club kids won at least 8 meets last weekend though!
