ELGIN, IL. - Offering a clinic to become an officially licensed track official in Illinois, Judson University cross country coach Rich Weinhandl will teach the clinic on Thursday, February 26th. This will be the first of two required clinics.
The clinic will take place in the Lindner Fitness Center at 9 p.m. and will cost $50. The first clinic will be 90 minutes long with the second clinic to be at a later date.

Opportunities to advance to higher levels are available. After you have earned your certification, you can start to work track meets and earn between $75 to $125 a meet.
