The Odessa Record -

The Odessa Athletics Hall of Fame committee has resumed meeting in Odessa this spring to select inductees for the 2018 third annual induction ceremony to be held at the Odessa High School alumni reunion on June 16. This year, the committee has selected nine individuals and four teams to be honored at the reunion and to have their names and brief bios added to the display case in the foyer of the Odessa High School gym. The names of the newest inductees will be announced in The Odessa Record a few weeks prior to the reunion.

Once again, The Record will produce a keepsake booklet with pictures and information on the selected inductees. As before, committee chair Bruce Todd and vice chair Jon Heimbigner are encouraging the public to contact committee members with suggested nominees, especially with regard to the earliest years of Odessa athletics.

Those wishing to donate funds to help cover expenses incurred by the committee for the commemorative plaques awarded to each inductee and the metal plates mounted in the display case at the gym are encouraged to contact Heimbigner on his cell phone at 509-701-5741 or Todd at school at 509-9H82-2111.
