old Olympics




Wawayanda Olympics 1959, photos by Mike DeVita. Notice the flags set up around the Olympic Circle. For many years--at least through '68--these would be set up for Olympics and also for every check-in day. Note, too, how rocky the soil is in '58. It took a while to clear some of the rocks and grow some grass on some of the fields and along the paths.
