“We have no big vacation trip planned this year. We’ve already been to every corner of the globe so now looking for places in-between. We spent a few days in Cuzco, Peru, for their Festival of the Sun, then a week hiking up to Machu Picchu last year and it was fantastic. “I enjoy reading the Avon news online and I’m looking forward to the next gathering!”

Fall 2010 The Avonian

’80 was here in Orlando last week. Mike teaches

tennis in the Ithaca area and put our kids, Marielle (11), Maddie (10), and Elijah (4) through their paces on the court.” Dave finished his fourth season of coaching high school lacrosse at Bishop Moore Catholic, where, he wrote, “I often draw on the teaching of basketball coach Pete Evans, such as: 1) you beat a zone by passing, not by dribbling or driving; 2) to start the fast break, guards break for the hash marks; 3) v-cut to break open on the wings and when your defender relaxes, go backdoor; 4) don’t give up on the press (ride) because the turnover often happens after your opponent crosses mid-court.”
