After a two-year absence it was great to be back honouring the region’s outstanding sports heritage at our 39th Induction Dinner & Ceremonies. Close to 200 people were on hand in the Valhalla Inn Ballroom on Saturday, September 17th to welcome in the Class of 2022 which included Athletes Gerry Cizmar, Jason Napper and Taylor Pyatt, Builders Patti Kitler and Ken Slater and the 2017 Canadian Mixed Curling champions and World Silver medalists, Trevor Bonot, Jackie McCormick, Kory Carr, Megan Carr. Thanks to Chris Ficek and Maverick Entertainment for creating our biographical and ceremony video.

Congratulations to our newest Inductees and thank you to everybody who helped make the evening a great success. Special thanks to Diane Imrie and Chris Ficek and his team at Maverick Entertainment for their work on writing and producing our induction videos and to Bryan Wyatt for voicing them and taking on the Master of Ceremonies duties. John Sims captured the evening in photographs and pianist Pat Towell and vocalist Denise Krawczuk once again wowed the crowd with their great talents.

Thanks to all of our patrons and program sponsors who helped make the event a success and to TBaytel who served as our Presenting Sponsor and to the Ontario Trillium Foundation who provided funding for the creation of our inductee videos and the recording of the event.
