The Stevensville Hall of Fame Wall was officially unveiled in a ceremony at the Stevensville High School on Thursday, January 9 before the start of the varsity basketball game between Stevensville and Florence.
Stevensville Wall of Fame board member Steve Lewis spoke to the gathered audience and board member Vickie Vernon cut the ceremonial ribbon.
The Stevensville Hall of Fame Wall consists of individual plaques with the names of the Hall of Fame inductees for each year. The Wall’s most prominent feature is a framed TV that has a looping video with pictures and bios of all the Hall of Fame inductees.
Lewis thanked his board members and the community, but also gave special thanks to the STARS Foundation. “We wanted to acknowledge STARS for all their help and highlight all that they have done to make this all possible,” said Lewis. “Without their help, none of this would have happened.”
The ceremony also served as an opportunity to showcase the STARS Foundation and its goal of raising money for new tennis courts and track and field facilities for Stevensville. Mock photos were on display showing what the new facilities would look like once the money is raised.
The 2024-2025 Stevensville Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Ceremony will take place on February 1, 2025 at St. Mary’s Family Center from 6 to 10 p.m. The 2024-2025 inductees are: Ted Ray, Dr. Fred Costello, Billy Wark, Tom Tucker, Mike Goicoechea, Ralph Serrette, Firman Ray, and Kim Anderson.
