Sonny
Sheppard Memorial Relays
The First Annual Sonny Sheppard Memorial Relay Meet was held on May 3rd, 1950. Two programs are reproduced here - 1950 and 1952. These documents are temporarily housed in the Fulco-Eiserman Collection. Currently we are working on the history of the memorial. Eventually, these pages and others will be moved to a dedicated collection.

the meet. Read more about
