Simplot Games - Indoor Track Meet

 We noticed this ad in the newspaper a couple weeks ago - a couple in our ward are the Directors of Volunteers - so Dad volunteered!
 Held in Idaho State's Holt Arena - wooden track - athletes can't wear spikes on their shoes.
 Dad was an umpire - on the second turn of the track - he would hold up this white flag when 'all was well' with the runners - I think that young man was the last one in this heat.
Waiting for the runners - isn't he cute?  I dropped him off in the morning and came to watch the last few races at 5:00 - he gets to keep the shirt, and got a ticket for lunch!



I know this is sideways - don't know how to correct it .. just wanted you to see the high school athlete who had his legs amputated below the knees when he was ll months old - he won two races!!
