ANOTHER CLASSIC SUCCESS!!

The 3rd Annual Fall Classic Dinner & Auction was another Classic success. Hall of Famer Paul Molitor capped the evening with an inspirational keynote address, praising the involvement of the local community for their unwavering support of the current facilities improvement programs. He was preceded by Colonel Kurt's auction antics, the leave 'em laughing stylings of MC, Dick Jonckowski, the honoring of veterans and several of our most successful teams (softball & baseball) and last but not least, the presentation of a $50,000 dollar check to the Diamond Club to secure the naming rights for the new softball park. Relive some of those favorite moments from the 07 Classic in the pictures and video clips posted below.
