Mid-Mon Hall banquet moved again to 2022

By the Mon Valley Independent

For the second straight year, the Mid-Mon Valley All-Sports Hall of Fame has announced it is postponing its annual Hall of Fame Banquet.

In a release earlier this month, the organization announced it was postponing the banquet for another year due to the challenges associated with COVID-19.

The banquet for this year was again not feasible due to the continued prevalence of COVID-19 pandemic, the organization said in the release.

“It was necessary to cancel the banquet yet again. In conversation with the inductees, while disappointed, they were all very supportive and understanding of the decision,” Chairman Dennis Stitch announced. “To our supporters, the MMVASHOF is thankful for your commitment, dedication, and unwavering support over the years.  You are the pillars that help keep our organization strong and vibrant in the Mon Valley. We truly appreciate all you do. As we go through these uncharted waters, we not only will stay together, we will thrive together.”

Those individuals originally scheduled to be inducted into the Mid-Mon Valley All-Sports Hall of Fame as the Class of 2020 will now comprise the Class of 2022 and will be inducted at St. Spyridon Hellenic Center June 17, 2022.
