Athletes from all over Connecticut and parts of Massachusetts are already signed up for the 33rd annual Windham Invitational Special Olympics swim meet.

These clinics will run every Friday through the end of March at the Memorial School gym.

Walk-in registration will take place on Saturday, Jan. 21, 2012 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the C.W. Currie Field House at Seamster Park.

In 1999, Syracuse won the American Football Coaches Association Academic Achievement Award for posting a 100 percent graduation rate for the class that enrolled in 1994.

With the men winning a third title under Calhoun’s reign, many have wondered if he will chose this time to retire. He has won more than 800 games throughout his 39-year career, which includes 25 years at UConn. When interviewed after the rally, Calhoun said, “I haven’t said yet either way.”

As of about 1:30 p.m. today, enough funds were raised to make the Victory Parade for the NCAA Champions, the UConn Huskies, a go!

The event is a fundraiser for the East Hampton Safe Graduation Project, which provides alcohol-free entertainment and activities at a party for seniors on graduation night – and, in order to come up with something really attractive to the teens, costs a good deal of cash.

Marching bands from Middle Schools and High Schools in Connecticut and other organized musical marching units are invited to march in the University of Connecticut’s Men’s Basketball Victory Parade that kicks off at 3 p.m. on Sunday, April 17 in downtown Hartford.

The parade will begin and end at the State Capitol, and wind around Bushnell Park, Main Street and Capitol Avenue.
