| ONCE AGAIN OUR INDUCTION BANQUET WAS A HUGE "HIT". A BUNCH OF NEW FACES MIXED IN WITH A BUNCH OF OLD ONES MADE FOR A NOSTALGIC DAY FILLED WITH PLENTY OF STORIES (THE WAY THAT WE REMEMBERED THEM) BEING TOLD. THANKS TO OUR COMMITTEE, THEY DID A GREAT JOB. AND THANKS TO WAMSLEY'S SUPER EFFORT (AND OTHERS) TO SELL TICKETS, THE HOUSE WAS PACKED. OUR PRESIDENT INTERRUPTED HIS VACATION AND FLEW BACK FROM FLORIDA JUST FOR THIS DAY. AS USUAL, THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, AND MARY (THE CATERER) OFFERED US NOTHING BUT OUTSTANDING SERVICE. I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE SEEN A LOT MORE "H.O.F. ALUMNI" IN ATTENDANCE. PERHAPS NEXT YEAR YOU CAN SHOW YOUR APPRECIATION BY SHOWING UP FOR THE 2020 INDUCTEES, JUST AS OTHERS SHOWED UP FOR YOURS.
YOU CAN ALSO SUPPORT OUR EFFORTS BY PLANNING TO ATTEND, OR DONATE YOUR TIME TO ANY OF OUR OTHER SCHEDULED EVENTS....."A NITE AT RIPKENS, OUR BULL & OYSTER ROAST, OR OUR ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT". IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN OUR BEAUTIFUL CABINETS YET, THEY ARE ON DISPLAY ON THE 2nd FLOOR AT RIPKENS FIELD....BRING THE KIDS FOR A FREE CAP, AND SOME GREAT FIRE WORKS AFTER THE GAME. I KNOW THAT I AM ALWAYS ASKING FOR SUPPORT FOR "OUR" ASSOCIATION, BUT IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES TO KEEP US STRONG...I WILL KEEP ASKING FOR YOU TO GET IN THE BATTERS BOX & SUPPORT YOUR TEAM.........
