Speed City” Documentary in Pre Production

 

According to an article on “SpeedEndurance.com”, written by Jimson Lee, a documentary about the “Speed City” era is in pre production.  The documentary focuses on the legendary track coach Bud C. Winter and all the athletes he coached.  The release date for the film has of yet to be publicly announced.  The trailer for the film can be found at “RunnerSpace.com”.  The article mentioned that the producers and film writers were looking for any memorabilia of Coach Winter’s or still pictures of the old SJS track team to add to their film.

We of SJSU Track & Field support this documentary.  We encourage the film makers of this documentary to include us and our Save Winter Field project into the film.  Currently we hold old scrap books of Coach Winter and a record book of SJSU from the 1950’s-1983 (courtesy of coach Poynter).  We believe that these items may be relevant to the documentaries story.
