Friends and colleagues of the late Gary Malloy will gather for the planting of a tree honouring his memory on Saturday, Oct. 5, in Malden Park.

Malloy, who died in May 2019, was a UWindsor alumnus (BA 1983, B.Ed 1984) who spent more than 20 years coaching Lancer cross-country and track and field athletes. He will be inducted in the University of Windsor Alumni Sports Hall of Fame as a builder/coach on Sunday.

Saturday’s tree planting ceremony will begin at 4:30 p.m. and is open to all who wish to attend. Organizers recommend the parking lot off Matchette Rd. as closest to the planting site.
