Hi Mack: I'm trying to figure out just about how old the KentA.A is. I could remember them from the time I was a young kid. I think they had their first club house in a garage on Kent St. Some of the early members were Gerald(GoGo)Radice, Vince and Paul Ricatto, Casey Graziano, Mario Rossi, Stingy Tallone, the Zasso brothers. Radice went over to Italy for awhile to coach sports and I think Vince Ricatto had a shot with the Phillies. They have carried on through the years with many projects and many of my friends were involved.

I'd also like to add, the Barron A.A. started in a garage on Kent St. and expanded into a beautiful complex in Hamilton Township, which now is used as a senior citizen center.I think Clarici was one of the founders of the Barron A. A. So Kent St. was quite popular as a beginning of two of Chambersburg best known atheletic clubs. Regards,Ralph
