Agenda for the 2018 Induction
Please be advised that the last day for reservations for the banquet is August 1st! Please email Brett Stell brettstell@gmail.com as soon as possible.
Thursday, September 20, 2018: Reception at the Kress Terrace and Induction Dinner at Suite 300, located at 212 South Elm Street in downtown Greensboro
Parking is available in the adjoining parking deck with covered entry to the event from the deck. There is no charge for parking after 5:30 p.m.
The Kress Terrace will open at 6:00 PM for a pre-banquet reception for those who wish to visit with each other and the inductees. Hors d’oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available.
At 6:45, tables will begin to be called by number (your name tag will have your table number on it) and escorted to the banquet area for dinner. Until your table is called, feel free to continue enjoying the reception!
Please feel free to invite as many people as you would like; the cost for them to attend is $30 per person, which includes the reception and dinner.
Seating is limited so early reservations are strongly recommended. Reservations may be made by contacting Brett Stell at brettstell@gmail.com. Once they submit their payment, their names will be added to our list of attendees. Again, only those whose names appear on our list will be admitted! August 1 is the last day that reservations will be accepted.
Friday, September 21, 2018: Inductees will be honored at half time of Western Guilford’s home football game with North Forsyth.
The team members and their immediate families will be admitted to the game at no charge.
During the reception, there will be a continuous slide show featuring all of this year’s inductees. Any photographs you can provide from the 77 team are needed by July 1! All pictures provided will be returned in their original condition.
The Hall of Fame induction ceremony (paying for inductees and their guests), the Hall of Fame cases, plaques, and signage, printing costs and other expenses, exceeds $5000 each year. Any donations or sponsorships of the HOF Inductees would be greatly appreciated. To sponsor an inductee, the cost is $500 and all donations are tax deductible. Thank you in advance for your help honoring these amazing athletes, coaches and patrons of WGHS!
