2022 Memorial Record Day

By Eric Todd

Meet Announcement

Our honorable president, Denny Habecker has sanctioned the Memorial Record Day.  This meet honors our former USAWA members who have passed over the years.  Some that immediately come to mind are John Vernacchio, Howard Prechtel, Rex Monahan, Joe McCoy, and Jim Malloy.  I know there are many others, and too many to list for our purposes here.  At any rate, it is a great way for us to honor those who have come before us in the organization.  Here are the meet details:

Date: December 17, 2022

Location:   Habecker’s Gym, Lebanon, PA

Please contact Denny if you plan on attending to remember these great people and set or break some USAWA records.
