Only the “Senior Games” are back on. This is for those 50 and over. As for the Summer Empire State Games, they have removed the link to the memo announcing the cancellation and now the page just says “no info available, check this website for further updates”. So maybe there is hope.
The more important and bigger Empire States Games masters competition for track and field (held at the same time as the open competition) is still canceled for 2009.
