Lisa Zehr was presented with the 2014 US Lacrosse Section 4 "Man of the Year" award tonight at our Lacrosse Banquet.

Dryden Budget Passes - Dryden Boys and Girls Varsity Lacrosse are funded!

Our 9th year of Varsity Boys Lacrosse at Dryden (2015 season) will be our first as an official Dryden Central School Funded Sport. Thank you to the Board of Education and the voters. The hard work of several dedicated families over the years has really paid off. We've come a long way since that summer of 2000 when a dozen kids tossed some balls around Montgomery Park with hopes of bringing lacrosse to Dryden. To help celebrate, here's our first logo. A classic!

Girls Varsity and Varsity Golf will now be funded also.
