2023 Vaultarama #5 & SENIOR SEND OFF

@ Westborough HS, Saturday 08/19/23


The 2023 Vaultarama Series continues on Saturday August 19th with Vaultarama #5 at Westborough High School.


This will also be our time to give our graduated high school seniors a rousing sendoff before they make their way off to their collegiate adventures. If you ARE one of those heading off to your freshman campaign please come with your college t-shirt so we can take an awesome picture of you all. There will be send-off gifts for all of you as well :-) Even if you don't plan on vaulting come and join the celebration!


In addition at the conclusion of the meet all of you are cordially invited to the Haagensen's backyard paradise to cool off with a swim! Their address is 201 Ruggles Street, Westborough MA 01581. We can't stay there too late as the Haagensens are all getting up at 4 in the morning to drive Melinda up to Colgate 🤣


Now as for the meet we are switching things up a bit. This time Flight #1 is for athletes planning on starting at 11' or higher. Warmups for flight #1 will start at 10:00am with the competition beginning at 11:00am sharp.


The Senior Sendoff will take place between flights #1 & #2 (no earlier than 12:30) - we'll introduce each vaulter, hand out the gifts and get our group picture at this point.


Flight #2 is for athletes planning on starting lower than 11' and will start as low as needed to accommodate everyone. Warmups for flight #2 will begin immediately after the Senior Sendoff activities with the competition starting NO EARLIER than 1:00pm


We look forward to seeing you folks fly high and saying goodbye to all of our seniors this weekend :-)


Register for flight #1 - starting at 11' or higher


Register for flight #2 - starting under 11'
