Fayette Flames have a busy summer planned The Fayette Flames are back on track, summer track that is. The Fayette County Track Association Inc. is hosting a "Sprinter Speed and Development Clinic" for youth athletes aged 7-17 who want to become better runners and work on goal-setting. The youth track club, the Fayette Flames, practices Thursdays from 6-7 p.m. at the Fayette County High School Tiger Stadium track on Tiger Trail in Fayetteville. Running events from the 800-meter down to the 50-meter are part of this developmental session. Beginning Tuesdays from June 19-July 17, the Flames team also will attend practice meets sponsored by the Peachtree City Running Club from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at the McIntosh High School track in Peachtree City. The team also will compete in this summer's Georgia Games June 16 (District 4 qualifier).
