The meet drew kids from Gresham, Stromsburg, Shelby, Waco, McCool, Seward, Fairmont, Benedict, Bruning, Geneva, Aurora, Osceola, Hampton, Bradshaw, Ohiowa, Milligan and probably a few others.

The field events included softball throw and standing long jump, while the running events were; 1600 meter run, 400 meter dash, 100, 800, 50, and 200 meter dashes, along with a 4x100 meter relay for those who entered teams. The top two finishers in each event will go on to compete June 21 at Grand Island in the Regional Meet.
