Chicago Reunion

by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2004

Bruce Hart is organizing a reunion of Chicago-area greats from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.

With names like Clyde Emerich, Bob Gajda, Sergio Oliva, Bill Seno and John Balik - to name just a few of the Iron Game luminaries who came from the Windy City - local talent is pretty staggering, and the tradition has been continued with such modern-day greats as the powerlifter's powerlifter, Ed Coan. The leading Chicago-area bodybuilders, weightlifters and powerlifters from this era all played a major role in their specialties, and here's a chance for all of them to get together. For more information, please contact Bruce Hart at (847) 991-2222.
