1914 YMCA of Rye, N.Y. Silver Medal. Awarded for Two Mile Relay Race.

CA$55.00

Sterling Silver. 33mm. 10.2 grams. An attractive medal awarded for the two mile relay race — four-man team in June 1914. Hallmark of the John Frick Jewelry Company of New York is stamped at the lower reverse. According to the Rye YMCA website:

Although activities of the Rye YMCA can be traced back as far as 1869, official documentation of the Y’s origins in Rye indicate that 1914 is the year we can herald as the beginning of our spirit, mind and body journey in this community. …

Documents indicate that planning for a Rye YMCA began at the end of 1913, with much activity taking place in the early part of 1914. Y staff and members first met in the old Library building and then in October of 1914, secured quarters above the old Guerin’s Drug store on Purchase St. located where the Rye Trust Building has stood for years.

The first-year status of this award medal undoubtedly adds to its significance.
