We added Cross Country to the athletic choices this fall and the team is off and running and doing very well. Clearly we have some outstanding and enthusiastic runners in both middle and high school. The first meet was the Oakwood Friends invitational – the season opener for the Hudson Valley Athletic League. Here are some of the photographs of the event (thank you Michael Gaidis.) In a separate event on Sunday Alex won the Dutchess County Classic 5K for his age group.

Congratulations to all the runners and to their coach Trace Schillinger.
