"The Long Green Line" motion picture, which chronicles renown York head boys cross country coach Joe Newton and the Dukes' 2005 state championship season, will make its Chicago-area screen debut at 1:30 p.m. Sunday, April 20, 2008 at Lake Forest College as part of the second annual Lake Forest Film Festival.
The movie will be shown at Meyer Auditorium in Hotchkiss Hall. Admission is $5 for non-Lake Forest College students and seating is limited.
I'm sure I speak for many people when I say Mr. Newton ranks second only behind my parents as the most important influence in determining the person I have become. I am very glad this project exists.
