A Wildwood Pool alum is making headlines! Mike Kish participated in the recent Penn Relays and won – decisively. He ran an incredible 13.47 to win the 70 & older 100m race.

We hear Michael is ranked no. 1 in the world in the 70-and-over group in both the men’s 100 and 200 meters! Do you think his activities back in the swim club days helped him become strong and quick? Hmmm….

At 71, Michael Kish has found a new passion, and he just happens to be the best in the world at it.

For those who feel young at heart (which is most Wildwood alumni) and who like music, check out this group. Some of us might want to join. We can sing and dance and think of the good ol days!

The average age of these singers is 85, but this isn't your grandfather's choral group; their repertoire includes music from the Ramones, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna and Twisted Sister.

Today's an anniversary! Two decades ago – on June 24, 2000 -- more than 100 former Wildwood Swim Club members, of all generations, gathered in Mendham for a fun reunion. If you were there, consider sharing a memory or a photo!
