Save the date: Aris induction into Van Cortlandt HoF (Oct 11)
Also, a request for photos/memories from the Broadfield course
šļø Save the date!
Folks in the NYS/NYC/Tri-State area, please save the date: on Saturday, Oct 11, Coach Aris will be inducted into the Van Cortlandt Park XC Hall of Fame! The induction will be at 12:15pm, just before the Eastern State Championship races.
We're planning an informal lunch for anyone who attends the induction. If you can make it, please reply via email so I can keep you in the loop.
š· Photos/memories from the Broadfield course?
Weāre approaching the thirtieth anniversary of the short-lived home course on Broadfield Road. I think it only lasted one season, and itās easily overshadowed by the home course that followed it, but it has its own lore that deserves to be told.
I want to write a little story about the course, crowdsourcing memories from other alumni. If you have memories/photos you can share, please reply to this email! Iād be delighted just to get an email from you and/or chat briefly by phone. Classes of 96/97/98, Iām looking at you!
