The Long Green Line

When I was in high school, there was one thing that you could count on....a winning cross country team. Every year, we all travel down to Peoria (and eat at Hardee's...which was pretty cool at the time) and cheer on our boys (and girls) on the Long Green Line. 25 state titles...50 yrs of coaching...Couch Newton is a legend (and never learned my first name...always little Wegs).

Some of my classmates have made a documentary appropriately titled The Long Green Line and it is playing at the York Theater in Elmhurst, IL Aug 16-17th! Check it out!

See here for more details and showing dates.

Go Dukes!!

(note: I was going to wait to post this but the Saturday show is almost sold out already!)
