Meet Hotel
Information to follow. We are working on securing room blocks at local hotels for athletes/coaches coming from out of town; we are also trying to arrange to have at least one shuttle to and from the meet, which will depart from/return to a central location.

Travel
We recommend that you consider using T.F. Green (Providence, RI) and Manchester (NH) airports as well as Logan International (Boston, MA). You will often get cheaper airfares traveling into Providence or Manchester.

Prize Money (Standings)
Athletes who compete in at least three (3) of the six (6) meets that comprise the New Balance High Performance Series (4 meets on May 19, 26, June 2, 9) and the New Balance CanAm Boston Elite Meets (2 meets on June 30 & July 3) will be eligible to contend for the prize money purse. Prize money will go 8 deep (men and women combined).  Scoring is based on the IAAF performance tables, with points assigned for each performance, with highest cumulative total winning (when two or more athletes are tied, best single performance will be the tie-breaker; after that, monies will be split evenly).  To be eligible for prize money, athletes must compete in at least 3 different meets, in 2 different events (eg, two 1500s and one 800).

First:  $1200.00
Second:  $700.00
Third:  $600.00
Fourth:  $500.00
Fifth:  $400.00
Sixth:  $300.00
Seventh:  $200.00
Eighth:  $100.00
