"To me, we must learn to spell the word RESPECT. We must respect the rights and properties of our fellowman. And then learn to play the game of life, as well as the game of athletics, according to the rules of society. If you can take that and put it into practice in the community in which you live, then, to me you have won the greatest championship."

They Shall Mount Up With Wings As Eagles

One of the disadvantages of the "Team Photo" is that all athletes look like ordinary people. And, so it is with these athletes shown in the picture above. However, the Country Mills Eagles Track & Field team of 2006 were more than that! It would take three months to develop, but the final picture is worth a thousand words. Don't worry, I'm not going to write them now, but watch each week and each story as it unfolds a season of young athletes that began as "Little Eagles", but rose up, spread their wings, and began to soar.
