Jeff Stone Memorial Run Takes Place Today
Annual cross-country tradition takes place at Sachem East's course on Columbus Day.
Sachem is holding its 21st Annual Jeff Stone Memorial Run today at the cross-country course at Sachem High School East.
Named after a pioneer in Sachem's cross-country program, the annual run is open to all Sachem district residents and children of Sachem staff members ages K-8th grade.
The run begins at 11 a.m., and the course varies, from a 400 meter "fun run" to a 1-mile trek around the fields and wooded areas of Sachem East's campus.
