It's Time to Get Serious Boys and Girls!

Join Coach Groves and Coach Whittaker on the Emerald Carpet this year. Everyone is invited.  Men and Women team members, Family and Friends.  We mean literally Everyone!

Coach Schwartz, Coach Groves and Coach Whittaker at last year's Alumni Run.

Coach Groves and yours truly, circa 2009.

Here's the email from Founder and Keeper of the Beer Clark Haley from January (slightly altered), detailing the particulars for this year's Reunion and Coach Groves Golf Tournament:

This is just a friendly reminder for the 13th annual Harry Groves - Penn State Track Alumni golf outing.  The dates this year will be Friday, May 16th and Saturday, May 17th.

The event will kick off this year back at Damons (in front of the Hampton Inn) where we have reserved the ground floor

(with the outdoor patio) on Friday night 7 -7:30 and Saturday night (6:30 - Close).  This obviously is a change in venue as the track team actually has a scheduling conflict this year with Big Tens and will be out of town - They will all be missed

this year and we can only hope there is no conflict next year.

Golf will be held at the Mountain View Country Club (former Elks Club) again this year with a tee time scheduled for the crack of noon.  We will revert back to the old charge of $150 again this year which will include your Green Fee and cart on Saturday and the events on Friday and Saturday night (you're on your own with your choice of beverage however!).  This is a rain or shine event if it rains, there are no rain checks and the monies go to the endowment fund(s) - (we have never been rained out in case you were wondering)... 

We have a block of rooms already reserved at the Hampton for a reduced rate but you must indicate "PST" or Penn State Track, when making your reservation. 

Please send your entry fee to Harry Smith, 7793 Hudson Park Drive - Hudson, OH 44236 (preferably prior to May 15th!).

Should be another great year, and as we indicated last year, if a pole vaulter can win this outing, anyone can!

Hope to see you there,

Clark
