100's To Attend Reunion*

The largest crowd ever will travel to Happy Valley this year for the First Annual Penn State Track and Field Alumni Reunion.  A healthy portion of them will join me on the links at The Elks Club on Saturday at the 11th Annual Coach Groves Golf Tournament. The greenery and neighbors have already been forewarned.  Begging and bribes** probably can still get you involved even though you have missed the deadline.

 author's interpretation of the crowd expected.

 

Final preparations are being made even as the team prepares for the Big Ten Championships this weekend.  The Reunion and Tourney are being held during an off weekend prior to the start of the NCAA Championship season.  You'll get a chance to meet the coaches and athletes and see what your support of the Program brings. 

A final phone consultation among the knowledgeable organizers (and me!) will be held today at Noon, and I will bring you any important updates then.  My advice is to check your golf bags for stink bugs if you happen to golf as often as I do.  For some reason stink bugs love my bag. 

*  More than 100 anyway.  And that counts as 100's in my book.
** Merely asking and the normal fees will probably be enough. Get in touch with the Track Office.  As long as you don't bring up hotels or parking for the Penn Relays, they will probably listen.  No bribes or begging will be necessary. What are we, Eastern Europe?  The more the merrier.
